First day of 2nd grade and Kindergarten

The big day was a hit.

First pictures. Then Brayden's bus arrives at the house. Drive Carter down to the bus stop. He was pumped for the first day of school. Got on the bus and off he went to start 2nd grade.

A few hours later, it was finally Luke's turn. He wanted to walk to the bus.

He was thrilled for his time. He was ready for it. Walked right on the bus. Luke told me that he really liked Mr. Larry, the bus driver and he sat next to one of his little friends.


I hopped in a friend's car and we drove to the school and watched them arrive and walk into their class. Luke was so confident and not a bit of nerves.

Jeremy and I tried to many things to make the big day special. The night before, prayers for the first day of school and the upcoming school year.

Jeremy left them notes to read at breakfast. I packed a note and a treat in Carter's lunch box. I give Luke a note to put in his pocket (he could hold it in case him got nervous to know that we were thinking and praying for him).

After school, we had friends over for snow cones. Then we sat around the table and talked about the first day.
Carter really likes his teacher and is ready to get it work.

Luke said the whole day was his favorite thing. Then asked if he could go everyday.
