What were you doing at 5:30 a.m.? We were happily eating pancakes. Yes 5:30. They have to be on the bus at 6:30. Lovely. We're going to learn to be early risers. I guess.
No leisurely walks to school at 8:50. No cute pictures of the girls walking to school, holding hands. No pictures of all 4 of my kids together, bright eyed and excited for the day. (the boys are fast asleep) I don't have 50 first day of school pictures to sort through. This is it. It's still dark.
I'm not even going to write about the ridiculous amount of time they spent last night trying to find the perfect outfit. I have decided to embrace it. This is how it will FOREVER be, after all. I may as well accept it. This is the first year that I didn't help at all. Elle said she wanted to look "rockin". Funny- her outfit looks a lot like her Halloween costume from a few years ago. Pyper said "she really wanted to make a fashion statement, but not a snobby fashion statement- a friendly one. 4th grade is really important, and I want to make a statement about who I am... but I want friends too, so I don't want to be too glamorous." Glad we got that cleared up.
Is it just me, or do they look old? Sad.
There they go... in the dark... have a good day girls. I love you, and despite the happy dance I was doing this morning, I will miss you. Just be yourselves- they will LOVE you!

WHY do they have to leave so early? does it take the bus 2 hours to get to school????
That is horrbile !!! Who the hell would have a good day at that hour !!! I am loving school being in as well !!
Wow, that is really early. What time do they get home? I'm wondering if school starts earlier or if it's just a long bus ride?! They looked really cute and tan in their little outfits. I'm sure they will make some fun friends fast. :) Your new house looks really pretty!!
Watch out Texas heres comes two of the CUTEST girls ever. They look adorable-they'll make friends and be a huge hit, I'm sure of it!
