First School Days 09

Have you ever felt like this?

Well, that is how I feel after getting behind on this blog by 3 months! However, the picture above is Emmi on her first day of preschool! As you can see, she was not so happy about it! (Yes, her thumb is inserted.) After a couple of weeks, though, Emmi couldn't wait to get to school and absolutely loves it! She doesn't like Saturday because their is no Nancy (her sitter), no school and no church! She is such a social butterfly!

The picture below is of Emmi, Calvin, Dawson & Braden. Calvin is in 4th grade and enjoying it! Dawson is in first grade and is reading like crazy now. Braden moved on to the junior high and is loving it, even though he was VERY NERVOUS the day of this picture. He is riding the bus to and from school, which is an entirely new experience for him and to do it alone (without his brothers) is a big step!
