School Daze........

My girls are headed off! Sam is entering 10th Grade! Casey 8th. How do I have girls that old? Especially when I am only 25?

Aren't they gorgeous? I know I am bias because I am their mom....but really.....the are gorgeous!

Then they were off to get the bus....at 7 AM! Of course me being me....was there with the camera. I did promise I wouldn't follow them down to take bus pictures....but at least I tried to get them walking.
Sam was not happy with me! She was telling me to go away. I am not sure if it was the camera or me standing there in my PJ's.


Tommy, on the other hand, was not so thrilled. The night before he started saying to us "Mom, I am more nervous than you think I am!"

That morning he woke up. The first words out of his mouth were "I am scared"
Thank god Sam was there to comfort him. She gave him a big ole pep talk.
We went outside to wait. He was scared....I just wanted to get a good picture. It wasn't working.

Then he sees the bus coming. I know it is do or die! I thought I would be putting him on bawling!
NOPE!!! He got excited!!!! I got my happy picture!

Katie was there for support!
He waited......

And climbed right on!!!

And off he went!!

The girls ARE beautiful....you are not biased. You are going to be beating off the boys (if you aren't already). Awww, poor Tommy! Those first two are heartwrenching...I know you were relieved when he saw that bus and turned it around.
