The first day of school.

Today we finally had to admit that summer vacation is indeed over. 7:00 am seems awfully early to have to rouse two boys sleeping peacefully, but the school bell tolled for them, so they were up and out the door by 7:45. Andrew was excited to go to his first day of kindergarten. When he got home this afternoon, I asked him what he liked about kindergarten and he replied "Everything! I like everything!" Addison was enthusiastic, but it was the enthusiasm of a schoolboy jaded by experience--he knows the fun and games of the first few days give way to work soon enough. But there is no reason to tell Andrew that for now.
