Bye, Bye, Boys!

Our day yesterday (Sunday) began at 7:15am when me and the boys left grandma Peterson's in Canada to come home after a six-day visit. The 12-hour drive went pretty well. I was lucky to have my mom in the passenger's seat to tend to my kids, and read me PEOPLE magazine. Being the airhead that I am, I left my camera home, so no pictures right now. Stacy's family came too, and I talked her into snapping a few for me. I'll blog about Canada as soon as I get pics! Anyway, we got home yesterday at about 7:30pm - just in time to get all the kids bathed, and in bed for their first day of school. Here's how it went...
Chase started Kindergarten. When I picked him up, he couldn't quit talking about soda crackers. I don't even know what they are (are they saltines?) Then, after thinking a little more about his time at school he said, with dissapointment, "but I didn't leawn how to wead - she didn't teach me". We keep telling him that he will learn how do read in kindergarten, so he was frustrated when after two and a half hours of school, he was still illiterate...poor Chase :(Logan is in a portable this year. That's a good thing since the school doesn't have A/C. He looked so big in his grown-up classroom. I can't believe he's in second grade! Luckily this year, he's back with his good friends Jackson, and Sam. He's a really responsible kid, and will do great. I'm so proud of him:)
