Kindergarten Starts

So, it feels like there is not one official first day of school for these Kindergarteners... yesterday was the meet and greet where they met their teacher and saw their classroom and worked on a project while I filled out some paperwork. Here they are yesterday outside the school.With their new teacher Mrs. Renne.
Today they went to class, but only half the class went. I am counting it as the first day since they road the bus and went to school.

They were SO excited for the bus to come, here they are waiting.
They hopped right on, they wouldn't even have looked back if the driver hadn't told them to turn around for a picture.
So they did.
They both got off the bus smiling, it sounded like their day went well and they made some new friends, although they couldn't remember their new friends' names. I had to ask a lot of questions to get just a little information about their day, but they seemed to really love it. I spent my time running errands with 2 kids instead of 4. I can't believe how grown up Jacob and Claire are now and I am so grateful that they are so excited and so confident.

Gotta love a little kindergarten boy going off on the bus with a gap in his smile! You did a great job of capturing the event. Welcome to the life of a mother of school children.
