Well after a whirlwind vacation to California, we got a whole day at home to get our school room in order before it was time to start our new school year. It was really great, actually.
Maybe it was great because my sweet little Eva slept the entire time we were working...either way, it was a perfect first day of school!
I'm a big fan of letting the kids sleep. No need to set alarms for us when we have all day to get all of our stuff done! That being said, we started a bit later today than we did last year. That was totally okay with Mrs. Teacher.
Eventually, we did wake up, and I made them a yummy treat for breakfast...cinnamon toast sticks.
...with icing, of course.
Isaiah is starting first grade, and Izzy is doing Pre-K this year.
Then we made our way out to our school room where the kids found new school supplies waiting!
This was always my favorite part of the first day of school. My mom was so great about making those things really special, and I try to carry that tradition on for my kids.
Then it was time to work!
I am so excited about all the things we have ahead of us this year! Both kids have so much to learn, and I pray I can teach them with grace and confidence and understanding.
2013-2014 school year...here we go!
