Laura was so excited - lunchbox, fun room, not home bored, etc., but today she decided she doesn't want 1st grade anymore because she'd rather be home with mom. We talked for 20 minutes, and she still went into the classroom crying! I hope she had a good day. "It's just so long, mom, - I want to eat lunch with you". I think part of the problem is that she's been highly clingy to mom since her surgery a few weeks ago, and so now she's really struggling being apart. I really didn't see this one coming - she's so ready and waited so long to go to 1st grade (fall b-day). 
Kelcie loved preschool - she loves Aunt Cathy's preschool. We love Aunt Cathy's preschool! Luckily, she goes with cousins she loves and has been doing it for 1 day a week last year, so there was no adjustment - whew!
It was also Erin's kind-of first day of school - it was her first day switched to Ethan and Jamie's school (K-8). She was really excited and came home happy. I hope this all settles soon - it's about to do me in!

Wow! Sounds like a lot of schools happening. I hope that it all settles for you too.
The kids look happy and excited. That is what counts most right :)
I am so confused! How many schools are the kids at?? I am hoping that Sophia isn't too sad about 1st grade, either. Last year, for Kindergarten, she still had days that she went in crying at the END of the school year. Yikes!
I'm sorry about Laura being sad for school. Gib has struggled with that too and it can be pretty heart breaking and draining but fortunately it does pass.
love the olympics, and love that school is back in session!
Ohhhh, poor Laura. I can't wait for her to get into school out here-- I'm sure you can't either. We love having you guys stop by in the afternoon though. Congrats on the loan!
