Well, it seems everybody is posting there "first day of school" pictures again around this time or year. Not to be remiss in my parenting duties, I thought I would have some fun with the children. We do not officially start school until next Tuesday. However, we have had a lot of first days this month so it seemed this was as good a time as any to share.
The first day Michael started his new job...at his old job...that is now his new job...I know...its confusing to me too!
The first day Sean started his VERY FIRST job! He is working at Six Flags as a grounds host. A great first job with benefits that he loves to brag about (e.g. tickets to the park and buddy passes!)
The first day Henry started college...he is taking two dual credit classes this fall at our local community college. He is actually doing a great job with his History and Anthropology courses. He made me proud this week as he was able to remember something from our past courses and answer a question no one else knew. (For those of you wondering about Sean...we messed up and registered too late so he will start in Spring...bummer but it will be ok.)
The first day I taught a group of homeschoolers Algebra II. A new cooperative study group started and I jumped at the chance to teach math again. None of my children needed the classes that were being offered so they get to stay home and enjoy an hour without mom while I teach.
The first day of school...sort of...we kind of opened some books this week just so we could enjoy the Labor Day weekend. So...I took some pictures of the children at one of our favorite parks with their favorite subject book in hand. I thought their choices were very interesting!
