James's First Day of 1st Grade 2017

James started first grade! It's his first time actually returning to a school for the second year since he had a different nursery, preschool, and kindergarten locations. He's feeling like a big deal this year. His teacher is Miss Gambino, and his friend from Kindergarten Michael B is in his new class. He's still seeing his friend Nolan every day on the bus.

First grade, 6 years old!

Miranda is starting school this year too!

He enjoyed the first day but then missed his stop on the way home. Much drama ensued. My blood pressure went through the roof. When it settled, he told me about his day and spent a lot of time telling me about his assigned school number and how they use it. He also told me about a girl, Madison, that's both on his bus and at his table in 1st grade. Looks like a new friend already!
