First Day of School

First Day of School!!! Yay!! I know I have not been a mom for a very long time; but that does not mean I can't appreciate when the school year begins! Raul and Ellie were pretty excited to go to their new school and get back into a routine again. The night before we had gone to the school (Harvest Elementary) and found their classes and met their teachers. We even found the lunchroom. I think they were feeling pretty confidant. So we of course had to have our 1st day of school photo shoot. Jackie wanted to be a part of it too. Ellie was so funny; she kept posing and saying "Mom, is this cute? Take a picture of this!". They were both so happy and excited....until the bus got there. Then all of the sudden Ellie was clinging to me. I gave her a big hug and told her she would be just fine and gently pushed her toward the bus. She gave a little wave and jumped on board. She had her moment of worry and then it was all gone! They both love their new school and their new teachers. I think they will both have a really great year!

Hey family! I miss you guys! And don't worry, you don't have to a mom for very long AT ALL to appreciate the first day of school! We love our babies but we love our breaks, too! Cute pictures of the kids, tell them Aunt Emo loves them!
