school is here!!!

Monday was the first day of school.

Jake started kindergarten. Wow! He loves it. 

He really likes to ride his bike home with his brothers.

He has made a lot of new friends in his class too.  He doesn't know their names yet but there is one little boy that sits by him that he calls "English Man"  He gets English and Spanish mixed up:)

 

 Jesse is in 3rd grade this year and not so enthused. He isn't excited about homework.  But his favorite thing is lunch and recess.  

Yesterday I asked him what he learned about at school today,  he showed me a skinned knee and told me very seriously "Women cause pain and suffering!"  I guess that you have to learn sometime:)

 James is starting 5th grade this year.  It was kind of hard for me to drop him off at school and think that it is the last time that I get to walk him into school and help him find his class.  Next year he will go to middle school and we will have to find it before he goes on the first day.  Ahhh! When did that happen?  We are planning on enjoying this last year of  Elementary before we have to move on to the big Middle School.

 They are such great kids.  I've decided that I will never have a normal picture of all three of them again.  Someone has to be pulling a face.  Oh well that is who they are and I love them because of it.
