First days of school

This year all three of my kiddos started school. It was just preschool for Neil, but hey I get almost 2 hours twice a week to myself now!! Woot, woot!! So far it has been really nice to say the least. The only downside is that he and Grace get done about the exact same time. It has been a logistical nightmare trying to get it all sorted out.

 My big 3rd grader this year. I still think it's crazy that she is getting so old! 

 Neil wouldn't really pose for a picture so this is the best I could manage. He loves wearing his backpack and insists on bringing it everywhere we go. Thankfully, he is doing great at his preschool.

Grace finally gets to go to the big school as a kindergartner! Yay! She's been waiting forever for this day. 

 Claire is excited to help me out with Grace and getting her to class ok. It's nice to have a big sister to help you.

 At her desk..."ok mom, you can leave now."

Home off the bus. Yep, she gets to ride a bus home. Crazy, I know, but fun for her. She had a great day and actually told me way more details than I could drag out of Claire.
