Written by As Jacqueline said to me this morning while tieing her own sneakers, “Well Dad, I guess we are officially first-graders now.” Yes you are. And off to school they go, beginning the 2016-17 school year. Time will again race by, but this moment we enjoy, and capture, only to look back on it and wonder where the time went.
They couldn’t wait to get on the bus. Theodore told me last night, “Dad I am not excited for school, I just can’t stop thinking about it.” This morning he asked my wife and I if they could walk down to the bus on their own after today. We said one, or both of us, will get them on the bus each day, to which he replied, “Maybe in second grade, or at least when we are 8.”
As for today it was Dad, Mom, and the twins all at the bottom of the driveway, waiting for the bus. The rest is history.
The twins are ready to take on First Grade.
Same bus. Same bus driver (they love Kami). Same route. Sometimes new beginnings are easier with some familiarity.
They posed for the picture. Holding hands, well that just happened automatically. At least they have each other.
“Come on Dad, let’s go!” Down the driveway we went to meet the bus. 1inawesomewonder (C) 2016.
Only one word from a “wordy” person that looks to the soul for emotion: PRICELESS!
Thank you. Agreed.
