First Day of School 2009

The big day finally came. Hannah was out the door more excited than nervous this morning. For the past month she has gone back and forth every other five minutes.


Ben wasn't as excited. He starts pre-school next week.


She waited patiently at the end of the driveway. The school district warned us that the bus would be late the first couple of weeks due to pictures and extended good-bye hugs.


We decided to start our good-byes early.


Finally, after stopping five houses up the street and at the corner before that, the bus arrived.


The bus driver asked her name and told her where to sit and then she was off.


Let's hope the rest of the day goes as smoothly.
