For those of you who know me well knows that this fits me to a T! Not that I don't love my children, I just need some structure and a break from all the fighting, messes and noise. Today was the first day of school and I happily sent them out the door! But hey, they were happy about it too. It wasn't like I shoved them out kicking and screaming...
These pictures are so typical of my kids. I ask for a picture. They stand there with a half smile like it's the worst thing in the world. I then told them to put their arm around each other and then their true personalities come out. Bunny ears and all.
Abby, watching the boys take pictures earlier, decided that she needed bunny ears too. Monkey see, monkey do right? Hope they are enjoying 6th, 5th and the 1st grade. Kaden and I are going to be best buddies. I know that I'm not as fun as Abby to play with so we'll see how things go. Maybe I'll be wishing my kids back after a week...

Yea! I am so like you. We start on Monday and I can't wait! My kids have had enough of each other and fight from the minute they get up until they go to bed. There are times when some of them are getting along but usually someone is unhappy. I am so grateful that my kids like school. It make me feel less guilty about being happy that they are gone.
Cute pictures! I have yet to send my oldest off to school yet. But I imagine that it will be very bittersweet. Good to have things more mellow, good for him to get out of the house, learn new things, and make new friends...but also sad to see him go!
