First Day of School

It is official, the kids went to their first day of school at Crossville Christian School, we did it! The kids did great, no tears and no whining. Mommy on the other hand, did not so great. I attempted to keep myself distracted, but spent the majority of the day in tears. My girlfriends, and even the coffee shop that I frequent attempted to encourage me, with a free coffee and lots of support, ha! I must have looked pretty sad....but the kids and teachers had a good day!! All good reports from Mrs Aprel and Mrs Tracey! I think the teacher may have been a little confused with the boys, the report said Joseph ate better and slept better, but that is not consistent with their personality or the behavior the rest of the afternoon! Joseph told on himself for playing rowdy on the playground, we will work on that. Johnathan was excited about the chocolate milk he had at lunch, even though I ordered white milk! That was his blessing! Jayne Elizabeth seemed as though she had been in school before, she acted like this was any other day of fun! I reconsidered all day yesterday keeping her home with me, but I think she prefers school, ha! I am so thankful for the kids teachers, I truly believe this will be a great year for each of the kids. The students in their class are so sweet, and we know most of the families. I look forward to watch these kids grow, and I will continue to stay busy and distracted each Tuesday and Thursday. Feel free to call me, or visit on these days, I will actually be kid-free, the first time in four years, so bittersweet.

The school uniform and dress code, looks like we are ready for Harvard!

 Joseph, he looks like he is contemplating calculus!

 My sweet, and precious Jayne Elizabeth

 Welcome to pre-school!!! Briggs was already there to greet Jayne Elizabeth!

 Mrs. Jillina with Andrew and Jayne Elizabeth, these two kids are buddies for sure.

 Adorable, Mrs Dana and Briggs, this is preschool for sure!

 Johnathan with his sweet friend Karolina, he likes her!

 Mrs. Tracey has K4 ready and learning first thing on arrival, good job Mrs Tracey!

 The prayer and raising the flag ceremony, this is the students and teachers at CCS~

 Preschool is exhausting, Jayne Elizabeth and Andrew still napping when we arrived for pickup!

 Awe, these three melt my heart. I am so proud of them that I can barely keep it in. Jesus, thank you for these children, may they grow in grace and knowledge of you!
