Mom and the boys... notice JP is excited!

Our baby, John Patrick, started "big boy" school today. Finally both boys are at school together. John Patrick has been going to full day school since he was 3 so that was not so surprising. However, watching him get ready in his uniform and go with Luke was different. Greg and I both went in with them this morning. Traffic was insane getting to PCS but when we finally all got there JP got real nervous. He had been so excited all night long. He could hardly go to bed because he was so excited, however, after we took Luke to his 1st grade room ... baby John wasn't so thrilled about going to "big boy" school! We walked him to his class (which is the same as Luke's last year) dropped off his backpack and then he wanted his daddy to hold him before walking in to the room. A little later I was still at the school and saw him walking with his class and he was smiling because he had discovered all his friends were there too! Just everybody was in different classes.

Luke was excited and calmly told me to leave after I walked him to his desk. He wasn't into the picture taking or other 1st day fun!
