Jack's first day

Clothes and backpack laid out ready to go

Daddy left Jack a note

He needed to play his new kazoo in bed for a while

before he was ready to get up.

Ready to go.

Showing off his cool backpack.

And we are off.

Ok, we did not walk to school, Jack thought it was a great idea,

I thought it was a little warm.

Jack and Eliza Joan Bierman.

Eliza came running up to us in the parking lot and hugged me.

God bless that girl, she is so sweet.

That's when the tears started for me.

Jack and his buddy Frank getting ready to head to their classroom.

Mrs. Bergbower showing Jack where to put his backpack.

Jack is telling Mrs. Bergbower that sometimes people spell his name wrong.

After that I left. He did not even notice me leaving the classroom.

It probably was for the best, I was crying pretty hard.

Pick up time.

The kids come marching out to their awaiting parents.

There is my little boy in the yellow Crocs.

Jack and Mabry lined up waiting to be told they can go with

their Mom's or Dad's.

This is the note Jack's teacher left in his folder.

He also got this certificate!

So, we survived day one. Jack thinks that school is all right and wants to go back again tomorrow. He told me they had cupcakes today (explains the blue icing on his shirt) and sang a song about going on a bear hunt. He said they did not learn anything, but he did go down the fire pole on the playground.
