The first day... all over again.

Our family has had quite a transition year, and last Monday was just the beginning of stability for all. For a while now, we have had in our minds that the kiddos would go to Trinity Christian School, but God had a different plan for our family. Meridian Elementary is our school home for this year and we are grateful it is a mere two minutes away from our house.

Todd began his 4th year in school as a 3rd grader and he is having so much fun. Hannah also began her journey into elementary school... (and that was a harder transition for mommy than Hannah) She is getting into the swing of things, yet every night.. when she is exhausted beyond words... she tells me that she doesn't want to go back to kindergarten!! :) I cried on and off the first week, partly because I am in a new stage in my life, and partly because Hannah had a rough go of it at first. My heart just aches for her as she tries to figure stuff out and that has been the toughest part.

Here are just a few snaps of my kids to mark this day in our memories. I hope as all of your kiddos start the blessed school season, we can think of each other.... and also plan a great coffee date!!

Great Pictures!! What an exciting day for the Tolson Family! I'm definitely up for coffee by the way!!!

Sarah said...

Good then we will plan it! How bout in 15 minutes?? :)

I'll pray for Hannah. Maybe she just needs some time. Last year Rhett would not even talk to his teacher or classmates until the middle of the year. This year he seems happier about it but we shall see. It's just pre-school though not big time Kindergarten.

We need to schedule our "Paula Deen book club coffee chat"

Sarah said...

I know it will get better for her!!


And, yes, that was going to be my next post... Book Club time!! :)
