** school already **

yep.. the time has come.. first week of school is underway..
all my 6th grader wanted was to finally sit in the backseat on the bus ..
& it happened!!

wooooo hoooooo!!
remember those little things..
the backseat on the bus .. a ding dong in your lunch...
sitting by the boy you are crushing on
:)
and the awkward moments..
getting called on in class no matter how hard you looked the other way praying
"no no no not me "
having to walk to front of the class & having a wedgie...
having a tickle in your throat & nothing to drink while the teacher talks
on & on & on
while tears start streaming down your face from the stupid tickle...
you zipper is down
locker rooms
first bra
need i say more??

i don't miss school...
i was the wiggly girl ..
had ants in my pants...
chatty chatty
i'm front row 3rd from left
kindergarten

oh the early 70's

i have report cards from 1st grade that say ..
" maggie must have some confidence she doesn't seem to
care if she gets an answer wrong in math "
" maggie is so busy even her coloring looks sloppy "
... too much huh?
i managed a straight A kid that the school counselor encourages
wiggly kids like his mom to hang out with!!
so i figure as a mom

i hit the
JACKPOT!!

hope your first days went wonderfully
:)

Conor started this week too! 5th grade, new school
THE MIDDLE SCHOOL!!! he loves it so far!!! Phew.. I worry about him fitting in.....
The bus has driven by our house 2 mornings in a row. First day, he kept on going. I made a phone call...
Today, altho he passed, he stopped. It will be nice to have a week behind us! Finding our way thru this new routine is WORK! lol
Your photo is adorable. And in your list of memories of school- many i'd love to forget! Ha!
Love t you.... write when you can! Miss you!!!

Tristan started her senior year. She's complaining a lot - about the bus, blah, blah. We just keep saying "It's the last year you'll have to deal with it." :)
