First Day of School

The kids started school a couple of days after Labor Day.  Timothy was a little nervous about first grade and being at school all day, but he did great.  Charlotte was so ready to be back, she has changed so much since school started. 

Two funny stories about the first day - I had to be up at the school all day to work with the PTA so I snuck into the cafeteria at Timothy's lunch time to say hi and see how his day was going.  He looked so overwhelmed, not at all his usual bubbly happy social little self.  When we were walking Charlotte down to her class we saw him again and said hi and he acted the same way.  I almost cried, I was so worried about him.  I think the whole being there all day thing was a lot to take in on the first day but he loves it now!  We walked Charlotte down to her classroom and she put away her supplies and started playing so we got her paperwork and I had to get back down to the lobby to help with PTA stuff and Brandon left to take Caroline home for a nap and after about 10 minutes one of her teachers came down and asked if she was supposed to take Charlotte home.  Turns out she didn't actually have class that day, it was just an open house and neither of us had realized it...so she ended up staying up at the school with me until it was time to get Timothy and come home. 

It was a crazy first day, but we love being Edgerton Wolves!
