First Day of School

They arrived this morning with new backpacks and sharp crayons.  They were so happy to see friends and delighted to finally be in first grade.  We welcomed six new children to our class this year and it is always so exciting to make new friends.  We were blessed with gorgeous weather for our first day of first grade.  Outdoor recess gave the little ones a chance to play and chat with each other.  They are excited for their first night of homework.  Will that last?  I am looking forward to see their smiling faces tomorrow.
