Well, its official.
The Little Yellow Middle School is open.
First year without any elementary aged children... and it feels weird. If you have preteens/teen in the house you know what I mean.
For the record, I am enjoying this age and stage with my kids. I know a lot of people don't consider these awkward middle school years their "favorite." I get it, I do. But, I think this stage is kind of fun; most certainly, its funny.
Yesterday, I took the obligatory first day of school photos.
The Girl, who is VERY excited to be starting school again was up and dressed and ready to go.
It just goes to show that wether schooled traditionally or home-educated, fashion is still of utmost importance to the preteen girl.
The Boy, isn't quite ready to be back...
He asked me to take pictures of him looking sad/mad about going back to school.....
He couldn't keep it up for very long... he's a smiler, that Boy. (He's is looking so much like my youngest brother these days... its kind of spooky!)
So there they are the 2011-2012 middle school class.
One sixth-grader.
One eighth-grader.
One teacher.
Living on a wing and prayer.
