There they go!

Off they go!

 Sophie started 6th grade, which is considered Middle School here. She was pretty nervous about changing schools and riding the bus and finding all her classes (she's taking French and Spanish this year!) She was up until 11:30 the night before. But the past two days she's come home with a big smile. She started Cross Country yesterday and said it was really hard but she liked it. 

Nora started 4th grade and was pretty excited. She gets to start Orchestra and is excited to join a new Sewing club that started up. She's had a good few days as well and has made some new friends.

Miles started 1st grade and was excited to have a desk! Last year they sat at tables so he thinks his desk is pretty cool. He also has one of his good friends in his class so that was exciting. 

Sophie catches the bus for the first time ever and it comes at 7:04. We walk the other two and leave at 7:30. It's been a bit of a transition waking the kids up at 6:30 for scriptures and then sending Sophie off before everyone else, but we'll get used to it. Wesley, Sullivan and I are excited to start going on our long walks in the mornings after dropping the kids off at school. Time to get rid of this baby weight! Here's to a great school year!
