2006 1st Day of School
2006 marked the first year that we have no
children in elementary school anymore. After 9 years of walking
one or both kids to school every day (our home is 1/2 mile from Lemme
Elementary School), it is going to feel very strange having to DRIVE the
kids to school.
This was Becca's first day of Junior High School,
and Joe's first as a Junior in High School. The contrast between the
two -- one like a cat on a hot tin roof, the other too cool to show any
emotion at all -- was remarkable. And hilarious...if they were
somebody else's kids!
Here are a few pix from the day:
