Hip Hip Hooray for 2nd Grade

Today we start our journey known as Second Grade. We hear it is one full of responsibilities, chances to explore new information, challenging spelling words and opportunities to become a highly effective student and person.
We started our day in the usual way. Sam was up early, playing video games. Toby didn't sleep in, but was the last person up in the house. We had pumpkin muffins for breakfast and mom packed our lunches. We have all our clothes picked out for the week and that made getting dressed super easy. (Although by the time we arrived at school it was already too hot, so we gave Mom our button down shirts.) Mom took our picture in front of the tree like she does every year, and we were off to meet the first day of Second Grade.
Excited...a little.
Calm...a bit of that too.
Comfortable...yeah I'd say so since Toby was chatting with the principal during opening ceremonies.
Adorable...Yeah, definitely.

2Peas, these pictures and Mom's words just tell it all. Their dress tells their personalities are different but precious. I love these little boys, but they will grow and mature so quickly.....Oh dear..i just guessed I might be 78 when they graduate from high school. i better start lifting the weights the kids play with so I can be stronger.:) Gma Joan
