First Day of School...Peterson Edition

The first day is finally here! Everyone was up by 6:45 and raring to go. Andrew only has a half day but he was up with the rest of the crew anyway.

Anna was so excited about her first day of Kindergarten that she almost left the house without even using the bathroom.

Luke (3rd grade) was concerned about which door of the school he would be entering because he only knew how to find his class from the front door--"no worries," I told him. "Just find your friend, Jonnie--he knows where it is." Oh the comfort we have in our friends!!

Ben (7th grade) never has any worries or concerns so he just put on his helmet and made a few laps in the driveway with his scooter, (never once thinking that his hair would get messed up)and then piled on the bus.

Andrew (sophomore) FINALLY got on the bus at 10:20 this morning and now I have a VERY QUIET house. For the first time in 15 1/2 years, I am home all day ...ALONE... You would have thought that there would have been tears shed this morning but I can honestly say....Let the party begin!! I've already taken the doggie for a nice long walk and cleaned up my kitchen from breakfast so what's next??? One never knows. A shower might be a good option. Have a wonderful day. Here are some pictures from this morning.




and here's one more for the heck of it-
