New Kids

I'm sitting here listening to Avery and Kyndra talk on the phone with Landon about their first day of school. They are talking about what they did, who they talked to, their teachers names, what they played with...the weather, what they had for dinner.

I think they had a great day and the anxiety was all mine...

They got new tennis shoes.

They can walk to school in less than 5 minutes.
Grandma and Shad walked with us to school.

Avery has a cubby.
They met a few new friends.

Avery colored a bear.
They had a lockdown from noon on.

Kyndra has a real locker.

They learned the rules.

They ate lunch.

They got Wednesday envelopes (I haven't thought of those since I was in school!)

They each wrote a little.

Kyndra made a "Keep Out" sign to hang while she is doing homework.

Wait...back up...lockdown? Hmmmm is that what they do in the city? There was someone wandering the streets from the pre-release center so they locked things down. I'm glad they were/are safe and necessary precautions are taken...but the first day of school!

My pictures were limited in number...I was too busy visiting with all my high school classmates that I saw at school! A mini class reunion!

The first day is over! They did it and I'm so proud of my little new kids!
