I tried my best to spend as much time as possible with Thomas this summer. Especially those last few weeks when I realized he was going to be gone from 7:10 am-2:45 pm Monday through Friday! Eek! Gulp! The first week was very strange for Lily and me, and exhausting but fun for Thomas. It helped a lot that he was returning to the same classroom he had for 4K. We will see how it goes when he has to switch to his 1st-3rd grade class next year.
Thomas was not used to waking up before the sun, but the excitement of the first day made it tolerable for him. Oh, and his super awesome robot alarm clock was a plus!

Checking to see what I packed in his lunch box.

Are you nervous, Thomas? Are you excited? You get to go for the WHOLE day!!


All four of us took Thomas to school on his first day.

Sweet, nervous hands. Tugged at this mom's heart strings!

Timid face

Concerned about not seeing her big brother for the entire day. :-(

Have-a-good-day cuddle from Lilo

First day of school dinner

As you can tell, the first day was a huge success!
