The big girls started 1st and 5th grade, and it was a completely normal first day! After 18 months of things always being up in the air, "normal" was cause for celebration. The first day of school always makes me realize how much they've grown. Charley looks (and acts) way too old, and a side by side picture of her first day of kindergarten and 5th grade only confirmed that we've gotten to this place way too fast. Craig realized on the drive to school that this is the last year we will have two kids in the same school building, ever! I almost didn't cry, but a little boy in Carter's class said her name the minute we walked in and was obviously excited to see her. My eyes got teary, but they were happy tears. She only made a few friends last year, so knowing she had a friend on the first day was so reassuring.
