First day of Second Grade

Today was Keegans first day of second grade. He was so excited, as he had a teacher we knew, and 2 friends from Kindergarten were re-joining him.
The day went well. Thomas walked him to school, and Braden, Dayton and I picked him up this afternoon.
Tonight he had a bit of a reality check though when he realized he didn't have time to play with his friends, eat dinner, do homework, clean his room, and watch a Star Wars movie. I guess the lesson at home for this week will be time management.

Keegan found a Gundam ガンダム shirt at UniQlo(Japanese version of Gap) a few weeks ago. It has been carefully kept in a drawer with big plans for the first day of school since then.
Braden had just woke up and was still in his undies :)

So, summer is over. Did I accomplish everything I wanted to? No. I had intended so much for this Summer, and now it's all gone, and back to work.
We also got word today that Braden was accepted into the Sure Start Preschool program here. Sniffle Sniffle. Braden has been my buddy, I sure am going to miss him. He, on the other hand, is so excited, and can barely wait to leave me.

My little guy started second grade last Monday but Tropical Storm Fay came through so he was out of school all last week. His second day of school is today and it feels just like the first day. Anyway, your comment about getting everything accomplished over the summer really hit home with me. Right before my son started school, I did a post to my blog on the very same topic. We always have big plans to accomplish so many things and summer comes to an end too soon. I hope they all had a wonderful first day of school.
