First day of school

Nicholas started kindergarten last week and Julia started preschool for the very first time on Monday! We could not have been more proud of them. Last year on the first day of school Nicholas told us he was going to hold onto the chair and never let go. It made for a tough morning. But he adjusted pretty well. This year he wasn't nervous at all. However he did say the first day of school was "a little boring".

Julia's first day of school.

It is so funny how different Nicholas and Julia are from each other. Julia could not have been more excited for her first day. She picked out her outfit the night before. How cute did she look in those sneakers?!?! I was in the hallway trying to talk to her and she kept asking if she could go into the classroom. Was she trying to get rid of me or something? The teacher told me she did very well her first day and only got upset once out on the playground when she didn't get a turn on the swings. Julia later told me it was because she saw Nicholas on the playground for a few minutes and when he had to go back inside she was sad. Funny how that doesn't happen at home. Hmmm....

Tomorrow is Julia's second day at school. I miss her when she's not with me.
