School Schmool!

It's official: Carson is a big kid!  He started full-day kindergarten yesterday morning.  He has been sooo excited to start school, and especially to ride the bus.  The bus came at 7:40am - it was bittersweet for me to see him so excited and also nervous.  I asked if he was nervous and he said no, but I could tell he was.  Especially when it came time to get aboard.  I followed the bus to the school with my mom and the girls, but Chelsea needed to be fed and by the time we got out of the van, school had started so I didn't get any pictures of him there.  I'm so proud of him though!  The bus got him home at 3:40pm.  What a long day!  He said his favorite part was watching a little show and laying on a mat for rest time.  He also loved recess.  Movies and running around...yeah, that sounds like Carson all right!  I think about him all day long and check the schedule to see what he's doing throughout the day.  Cami seems to be doing okay so far, but she has Grandma here to entertain her.  We'll see how she does when all our company is gone!


Zack gave Carson a father's blessing on Monday night after FHE.  Zack choked up and that got me going too.


Of course Cami couldn't be left out and got one too, to help her transition as well.


At the bus stop! (Which is right in front of our house...so nice!)











Those nervous fingers creeping in.


Could you just die at this last look of his before getting on the bus?  My nervous, brave boy!








And he was off!






Home again.


His pose of choice.


Love our little kindergartener!


Day two so far so good...a few more hours 'til Little Bud gets home.
