the smell of coffee from downstairs
time to get up
groggy kids rubbing sleepy eyes
getting dressed in fresh first day of school clothes
the excitement, the nervousness
"mom, make my hair stop doing that"
"Chris, make your hair stop doing that"
the cool new shoes
the giggles at too heavy backpacks
the ever increasing smiles as we get closer to the entrance
"mom, that's far enough"
"mom, can you take me to my class"
"Hey Chris!" and off he goes
"Cile!" "Analiese!" hugs and hands held and off she goes
Then the turn around, "bye mom" "Have a good day Chris"
And another turn around, this time with a hug, "have a good day sweetheart"
the ever increasing smile of a happy mama heart as I get farther from the entrance.
Cute! Hope they both had a great first day!
