Cale: Officially a 1st grader!

Last Friday Cale started 1st grade! I'm still getting use to the idea of kindergarten, how can 1st grade already be here? He was super ready and super excited. He was really looking forward to eating in the cafeteria for the first time, being at school all day instead of half, getting his own hair product for his bathroom so he could fix his own hair, and his very own alarm clock to start learning responsibility. Never too early, you know?

Last year, I took a photo just like this one as he walked to his first day of kindergarten.


Of course I had to get a pic with my big boy on his big day...




And sister too....


I bought a yard sign to show our school spirit. Wildcat Pride! :)



This year I didn't get to walk him to his classroom because we had to meet in the gym first. So here is him with his new classmates. Took him a little bit to warm up, but it was in no time he made new friends.


I feel like first grade is your first real start to school. I can remember 1st grade so well, and all the special friendships I made. Some of the friends he makes this year will move away throughout the years and some he will celebrate his high school graduation with. It's such a special time, and I want to make it as memorable and special as I can for him.
