Back to School! 1ST and 4TH!

Back to School! The kids went back to school yesterday!  I have a 1st grader and a 4th grader now ! Wow!  I remember those years when I was in school and I still have friends from those years so it's neat to think of the memories and friends my children are making will last a lifetime!  They both were sooo excited to start school and were counting down the days until school started again.  Mitchell has the same teacher as last year who he loves and is in a K/1 class.  Shayla is in a 4/5/6 class and has a new teacher so she is excited about that too!  Here's to a new school year for my kiddos and the first year that they will both be in all day school!

  

  

Mitchell's Quotes of the Day

Okay Mitchell's turn for quotes of the day. He is a blabber mouth too!


Me:  "Good morning my baby."   Mitchell:  "I am not a baby. Quincy's a baby"  
(smart boy - Quincy is our nephew who is 6 months old).


Mitchell:  "Shayla's my brother" (Still catching up on the concept of brother/sister, he called her his brother all day...or maybe she is just too much of a tomboy)


Mitchell:  Counting "1, 2, 3...thirteen, fourteen, fiveteen"  - fiveteen should be a word (;

Shayla's quotes of the day

To Mitchell:  "Mitchell, I am teaching you to share so you need to give me your book please."


To me on run: "Mom why do all the people we pass by (who are running) smell funny", Me:  That is their sweat dear...


To me on walk to the park as a little boy about Shays age passes her on the scooter: "Mom, that boy over there is handsome...and I think he was looking at me"
