I'm only now posting "first day of school" photos. I took these pictures of the kids back in August on the first day of school. The second photo displayed was taken in our front yard as we were walking to the bus stop. As you can see from the photo, it was still dark when we left . We had to wake up at 6am to catch a 7 am bus. What you see covering the grass in the background is not frost, but dew from a very humid 80 degree morning. Can you imagine it being 80 degrees BEFORE the sun rises? The first photo is of the kids getting on the the bus for the first time. It was a monumental moment for the kids so I thought I should honor it by taking a photo.
The kids were very anxious about taking the bus, especially Faye. But all nerves were settled when they saw that several of their friends from church and the neighborhood rode the bus too. So now that makes riding the bus fun and exciting.
One disastrous thing that occured that first week is that Faye left her brand new glasses on the bus on a Friday. When they were returned Monday morning, the bus driver sadly told me that some kids got to them and completely destroyed them. I was so upset about it, not only because cost us money to replace her brand new glasses, but that school kids could be that destructive. I would post a photo of them, but I'm so over it now and Faye has a better pair of glasses, the ones she is wearing in the previous photo.
So that is the sad story of the lost broken glasses and first day of riding the bus.
The next post I want to show you some cards I have made recently. I wanted to display them because the paper I used in some of them was made by my talented and beautiful sister-in-law Tina. She is so creative!
