Jack did awesome for his first day of Kindergarten yesterday. He was a totally different boy than he was starting pre-school last year. He was full of excitement, eagerness, and a little anxiety. Half days, school starts at noon and so even though we had all morning to prepare, we are not used to eating a full lunch at 11am. It's 11:15 and we were rushing to get food down and outside to take some pictures.
Eleanor doesn't start pre-school until next week but wanted to be in on the pictures too...bad idea since she leads the goofy train! No chance I was getting them to be serious.
Turned out pretty cute though!
A friend of mine whose son also started Kindergarten this year shared a verse on her blog that she was praying for her son as he also ventured into this big world. As I read it, I was reminded of how important it is to be praying God's word back to him and lifting our kids into his hands. (Thanks Bekah!)
Lord, turn Jack's ear toward wisdom and his heart toward understanding. Give him a teachable spirit, one that calls out for insight and searches for it as for hidden treasure. (Proverbs 2:2-4) I love this kid so much and I'm so grateful for you to entrust him to us.

So glad Jack had a great day! Each day gets a little better for Benjamin but he still says, "It's too long and there are too many kids there." That bottom picture of Jack and Eleanor is so adorable.
