Back To School (Robert)

Robert is entering 11th grade this year. Wow, a Junior in High School. Where did the time go? He gets himself up at 6 am, makes coffee, reads the paper and catches the bus in the wee hours of the morning. It is still dark out! Rob is going to be very busy this year with 4 AP classes (AP Bio, APush, AP Lang, AP Calc) XC and Chess Club. He doesn't get home til after dinner and sometimes even later. Rob enjoys high school and basically we don't ever see him anymore :(

Back To School (Jack)

Jack is going into 3rd grade this year. He really wanted a boy teacher but didn't get one. He did get a teacher that Robert had in the past and liked very much. Jack was also hoping for some of his friends in his new class...that didn't happen either...although there are some boys he knows from other classes. Jack would also like to wear long pants even in 80 degree weather. He did wear shorts the first day of school because the rule in this house is Mom has final say in what you wear to school on the first day and picture day! The rest of the school year is up to you. Jack is currently liking to wear his hair long. While it makes it easy to tell him and his identical twin brother apart... it drives his parents bonkers. We are coping.

Back To School (Timothy)

Timothy is entering 3rd grade this year. He has a new teacher and many new friends in his class. Tim's favorite subject is P.E. (we don't call in Gym anymore) and recess. Although he is a serious student because he wants to please. Molly picked out his outfit for the first day of school. Tim would happily wear a suit and tie to school if we let him (we don't own any so it isn't really a choice). He's such a super kid who makes friends very easily: in the past we had to explain that the boy you just met in the checkout line at Wegmans cannot sleep over tonight. I know Tim will have a great year.

Back To School (MOLLY)

Molly is going to middle school this year (6th grade). She is very excited about having a locker. Decorating the locker. Opening and closing the locker. Putting accessories in the locker...oh and yeah maybe there will be some classes she may need to attend. It is also about the outfits... hours are spent trying on clothes and then leaving them in heaps on the floor of her room. The boys and I have seen many a fashion show to plan for just what she will be wearing when she stands in front of her locker.
