First day of School!!!

Thursday was Collins' first day of kindergarten and Mary Blake's first day of 2nd grade. Both of them were very excited. Mama was the only one that was anxious, sad, excited - you all know how it feels. Thought these first days of school would start getting easier for me. Anyway, they are both adjusting well - It took Collins a few days to warm up to the all day thing. His report today was that he played Star Wars and Power Rangers at recess - which means all is good for Collins! Give him a buddy to play Star Wars with and he is good to go. I don't get a whole lot of details from him - just what he ate and what he played. He also doesn't remember anybody's name. He refers to them as "the boy in the green shirt", or "the boy in the blue shirt". Mary Blake, however, reports a very detailed day along with tons of names of new friends. She LOVES her new teacher and makes up homework when she gets home - just to practice. She certainly did not get her overachiever traits from me!
