Back 2 School

It's that time again. My children are chomping at the bit to get back to school. What is wrong with them?? Don't they realize that is a 5 day a week ritual of getting up at 7:30 a.m., getting dressed, making their beds, getting to the breakfast table and actually FINISHING their breakfast (Gabi) before school starts and then having their butts in their seats by 8:30 a.m. Don't they realize that mommy has to have her butt out of bed before them and have herself dressed and ready and maybe, just maybe enjoy a little peace and quiet before awakening the chaos for the day.

I guess these things just don't cross their mind. They are eager to learn and I don't want to squash that desire in them. We had a fabulous year last year with minimal speed bumps. I am holding my breath and hoping we are blessed with the same kind of smoothness.

So, without much further ado, here are the kids on their first day of school.

Jake - 5th Grade

Olivia - 3rd Grade

Gabrielle - 1st Grade
