First Day of First Grade

 Hayes started asking when he could leave for school an hour & a half before school started. He was excited!  It was a bit weird having him gone all day and Kamri was a bit bored but I think she'll be okay with it once preschool starts.

His report when he got home at first was "school was good" but at dinner we got more out of him. He said he went to library and he gets to check out one book each week, two kids cried, he went to the lunchroom twice-one of the times for the principal to speak but he couldn't remember what he said because he talked for a long time. 

Kamri wanted to come with me to drop Hayes off. I tried to leave Lyla home with Bracken but she wouldn't have it. She was standing by the door screaming as we buckled up so Bracken came along too to sit with the girls while I walked Hayes to class.  Lyla was smiling big because we just switched her to forward facing but I just missed it in the picture and no time for another one--we were running later than I wanted to be--like usual.


My favorite line today was when we were reading The Book of Mormon tonight we were reading about King Noah & Abinadi.  We asked Hayes what Noah did to Abinadi: "He fired him!"   (Abinadi was a prophet and King Noah ordered him to be killed by fire because of his teachings).
