Monday was the first day of school since Labor Day is not a holiday here (of course). It was Enoch's very first day of school, and he was super excited. This summer just flew by and I didn't have time to think about my little boy starting school, we were just too busy. And then the day came and we got dressed and I nearly forgot the camera. Really, I was just hoping to get through the day. I had to drive to the school 4 times since the base bus wasn't running and Enoch was having a shortened first day. With 4 trips and Phinn's naps and feedings, it was going to be a whirlwind. As I was dropping Enoch off though, I realized that he isn't my baby anymore. He is such a good boy and will be wonderful at school. I love him dearly. And I did remember the camera just in time, so here are some pictures:
Notice he is carrying his new lunchbox. He doesn't actually have lunch at school for another two weeks since the first month they do short days that get a little longer each week until they are going full time. However, he insisted he have a packed lunch just like Hilde. So we packed his lunch and he ate it after I picked him up.
Hilde looks more beautiful each year. She is so grown up now and really ready for Year 2 (2nd Grade). She was excited to start back into reading and art, not so excited about Math. We are looking for ways to change that...
I love this picture of Enoch walking off to school. He left me in the dust several times with his enthusiasm. Good luck this year kiddoes!

Thanks so much for posting these, Michelle- they mean so much to those of us who can't be there to cheer them on. I know it is a hassle with all the trips back and forth. Hope you get a chance to catch your breath. Let us know what they say about what they are doing.
Awww... They are growing up too fast. What happened to my little Hilde and E?
