Today Dylan got on the bus to his first day of First Grade! Nana and Puna took him shopping for new school clothes on Sunday and he was all set!
He was even a huge helper to his best friend Logan as he was a first time bus rider going into kindergarten. When the bus arrived at Logan's stop and he was getting nervous about it all, he hears Dylan's shouts from inside the bus. "Logan, it's me Dylan!" The bus driver let Logan sit with Dylan instead of the other kindergarteners. All much to Logan's parent's pleasure.
Today starts the beginning of all day school for Dylan. No more playtime after lunch. It's back to the books. Homework is real now and will be graded. It's time to get back to structure and discipline and no more lazy evenings of accomplishing nothing. We're getting serious here! This is FIRST GRADE!!
The first year of school that I remember the most has to be third grade with Mrs. Mosely. She was one of my favorite teachers! There I'd met a new friend, Aaron. Aaron was the first person that I'd ever met that wrote with his left hand (just like my mommy!) And Aaron had never had rice krispie treats until he met me! It was a match made in heaven! I ran into Aaron a week or so ago. He wants to get together and have rice krispie treats and catch up. lol
Anyways, below is a picture of Dylan waiting for the school bus. I'm sure there will be plenty of paperwork tonight, stories of the bus, lunch time and his new class mates. I'm looking forward to hearing all about it. :)
