I cannot believe Sam is in 1st grade! Monday was a short day, so I didn't realize until Tuesday how long it would take for 3:25 to roll around! I missed him so much! I watched the clock all day and kept wondering what he was doing and if he was ok. Ben kept saying that Sam was taking long and I agreed. I was most worried about lunch and if he would be able to do everything, but he came home and said he ate Macaroni and Cheese and that it was yummy, so I guess it was a success! He did say school was fun but that it was long and there were no fun toys there. I am sure he will adjust to the new schedule and the "no toys" like in Kindergarten, but I still worry about how he is doing every day! I hope he makes GOOD friends and GOOD choices while he is in school. Friends are everything when it comes to the school years and I just hope and pray Sam will be influenced for the good! I sure love you Sam and I miss you like crazy when you are gone!
My handsome 1st grader!

Off to school!
Sam acted embarrassed when I took this so I didn't take anymore (although I really wanted to!) He is so cute!
Ben started school on Wednesday and this year we had a tear free first day! He was so excited to go and he just marched right into class like an old time pro. He is so fun to chat with after school. He tells me all about his day and I love it! I have to PRY information out of Sam and I am never very successful with getting much, so it is fun to hear from Ben what he was doing at school. I am so glad he is enjoying preschool this year. He cried every day until after Christmas last year and it was so hard! He is growing up too and is such a handsome little guy!
I was a bad mom and forgot to bring my camera when I picked Ben up on the first day, but I will get some next week and redeem myself! So another year is beginning and we can only hope for the best...Good luck Sam and Ben!

I can't believe that you've got two in school - your kids must be just like Sheshy's kids. Hang in there - I am sure it gets easier! :) She Heidi commented on my blog but she didn't leave contact information for me to get to her blog. Would you mind telling her to get me her blog. :) Thanks!
Your boys look so grown up!
I worry a lot about friends too. They are so important! I'm just so grateful I can pray for help since ultimately I have no control.
My kids love school, I think they need a break from ME! ;)
They are soooo cute! So true about friends. You have some control now so enjoy that while you can. The boys will be fine. Look how many people love them!
Amen about the friends- I see how important they are everyday working in a high school... I am glad that kids get to start small in elementary school!
Ok does Ben look like Dad or what!?! Now since I have heard you say that I just see Dad. :-) I really must say it again...I sure do adore your boys!!!
