1st Day


I am sitting here coffee in hand, snuggled with my Gracie girl and my computer, after having just dropped off the boys at their first day of school. With the boys gone, Grace had her choice of Netflix productivity and of course she chose Ninja Lego something (the boys have trained her well :).  

It was like the perfect morning *sigh*...(besides Matt's alarm going off at 5am and then 5:10am, making it so I couldn't go back to sleep, but hey when is life ever completely perfect). 

I finally got out of bed at 615am. I went and nursed da Hopie girl and then we woke the boys from their slumber at 630. The boys literally bounded from their bed in excitement to go to school. From there the morning continued without a single hiccup or in our case a single melt down, which should be documented as a Loboda miracle. 
My Matt stayed with the girls, while I had the privilege of dropping the boys off for their first day. 
We were greeted by the joyfully shining nuns saying: "What a beautiful day for the first day of school!" 
And it was...
This is how she chilled on her way to pick her brothers up.

  1. Oh my gosh, did you cry? I always get so emotional on the first day of school - no matter how many "first days" they've had!

    1. I probably should have cried, but I was all smiles. Though, it was really hard to drive away!

  5. Yay! Always fun to begin the new school year! Although Avila is out of sorts without Ava by her side for the whole 3 hours she's at PK, one less person to fight :)
