First day . . .

It's here, the day I haven't been looking forward to. The first day of middle school!! The end of our lazy summer, lazy year for that matter. Homeschooling Kiki last year (and this) for 6th grade was fun, and I LOVED that she was always home with me and I knew she was safe. But it all changes today :-( today I have to let by baby go out in to the big (it's not all bad) world. Where did the years go.

I know she's nervous, but I think I am more! I now have to wait hours to find out if she was ok, if she had a good day, and if she thinks she's going to like it?

I walked to the bus stop with her this morning, it's just a few yards away from the house. No other kids were there, she was the only one getting on at that stop!!!! Not surprising when our homes are acres apart, and I have no idea where the other middle schoolers live. I'm not even sure there was any kids on the bus? But I'm assuming there was because it had already stopped a couple of times in the neighborhood. I know you want to see pictures... So here they are....
