my first day of school!

Today was Dakota's first day of school. He woke up at about 7am or so,and soon after came back downstairs fully dressed with backpack and all,announcing he was ready to go. So of course,I had to get him to slow down,eat breakfast,and then he watched some cartoons to distract him. But by 8:15 he was asking for help with his shoes.(he has the tie up kind now.) I love that he was so eager. I am sure the excitement will soon diminish. Rory was also ready to go... We pulled up to drop off Dakota,and Rory looks at him and said, "two bye-bye." and then just yelled "GO" for the whole ride home. I told him his day will come soon enough. But now he has his new kitchen all to himself,so he is no longer worried!
