There is so much truth in how quickly time goes by. So here we are...The summer is over. It's already the second day of school but according to my little FIFTH (yes, fifth) grader, "it already feels like the middle of the year" after one day. The start of school this year was a bit calm. This is the first one where I wasn't doing a mad dash to get all of the stuff - the supplies, the backpack, the uniform skirts and the shirts. Since July was going to be a busy month for our family due to travel and competition, we went ahead and tackled the back-to-school shopping in early June. And even though I kinda (just a teensy kinda) missed the last minute hustle, I did enjoy having things ready to go, with little drama or trying to track a package that was mis-delivered by UPS (horrible story from two years ago and the package was never recovered due to an older neighbor that I actually talked to over the phone and provided my address to but decided to drop the package with my daughter's backpack in it at a random house that he thought was ours but then couldn't remember which house). Moving on...Her first day of school was a success! This is her last year at this school since there are no more grades offered. It's bittersweet since it represents the final chapter in her book of elementary education, but also the beginning of the next adventure also known as middle school. Middle school was the so-so for me so part of me wants to do a remote year or three. I have yet to find someone who was like - "Middle school - LOVED IT!" I know it has been a few years since my middle school days...like a lot of years but has it gotten any better. But like most things, she's probably more ready than I am. All this to share a few photos taken at the last first day of her elementary school. Not crying and will not. Nope. Just cheering her on, as I always do and always will. Go get 'em!
