First Day of School

What?! Wesley is in 1st grade. I can not believe it. Really? There is no way that he is old enough. I don't feel like it was 6 1/2 years ago that he was born. He is such a sweet boy, I love him to death and have loved having him home all day this summer. I am not ready for summer to be over and have him gone to school for a full day now that he is in first grade! What will I do? It's just Seaka and I. She will enjoy that (actually she kept asking where he was, bored and chasing after Roxy all day!).

This was the day before the first day of school when we got to go and meet his teacher, Mrs. Wheatley. Look how tall Wes is! They are both standing up and Wes is up to her chin!

Here we are, first day of school and he is ready to go. His desk is right next to Karson's, his best buddy! I wonder how this is going to work out. We warned his teacher...

This is where they check in everyday, by putting their name on what kind of lunch they are going to have, home or school lunch. Today Wes didn't want school lunch, it was pizza and he HATES pizza.

His class has desks. Lucky boy. The other 1st grade classes have tables. He likes the desks, I think if makes him feel more grown up. See the one just to the right of Wes, you can just see the corner of it, that is Karson's desk. Bad idea.

So to summarize his first day 2 days of school:

At recess on his first day Wes was stung by a wasp, 10 minutes after school started he and Karson were off to a great day of talking.

2nd day, his tooth fell out in class, and he and Karson were off to another fabulous day off talking, so when they came in from recess they found a surprise-Karson's desk had been moved.

Now they are both doing great!
