I have a First Grader!?

Last year, as a brand new Kindergartener...

This year, as a brand new First Grader!

I'm starting to notice that I pick similar clothing for him each year...

Oozing confidence

Caleb received a post card the week before school, confirming that Mrs. G would be his teacher and welcoming him to First Grade. Caleb had been through a school year in our wonderful school already, so attending the first-day assembly was nothing new, and certainly nothing scary. After the assembly, which Scott and I attended (Anna hanged out with Mimi), the classes formed a procession to their respective rooms. Scott had to rush back to work, so he high-fived and hugged his handsome boy.

Caleb was excited to enter his room for the first time (and deposit his heavily-laden backpack, I'm sure)

TEXTBOOKS!!

Caleb's friend from church is in his class, not to mention some friends from last year and even a friend from his old preschool!

We're proud of you, Caleb!
