The scene at the school bus stop on our block this morning:

Waiting with sister:

Biggest backpack ever filled with school supplies:

And he's off:

It was a success! He came back in the afternoon jumping off the bus bursting with enthusiasm! He said he had a great day, he made new friends, he has the best class ever, his bus is the best school bus ever, he loves gym class, he loves music class, he ate his snack and lunch, he has a buddy he sits with on the bus, he learned a new song, he learned about what an echo is, he played with new toys, he had two recesses, he got a sticker for being great, his teacher put a star on his drawing!!!

Soccer camp

Theo is doing a soccer camp this week every morning for 3 hours. 

Viv and I are taking advantage of our extra time to get some chores done. Yesterday Vivian got blood drawn for her yearly lead test. She was very brave and very proud of her band aid.
