First Day of School


The first day of school this year was very new. This was the first year Alexandra and Isabel went to public school and they were very very excited to ride the school bus and be in the same school as all of their neighborhood friends.


Alexandra's first day was a success!

Alexandra: Wyatt from my old school is in my class.
Me: Thinking to myself, wow their new school 20 mins away from their old school. What are the chances but that's great!
Alexandra: Yeah, but the funny thing is, he doesn't remember me. ( Just a side note - their were only about 11 kids in her classroom last year)
Me: Really?
Alexandra: Yeah! He doesn't even remember any of the other kids or the school.
Me: Thinking this can't be the same kid.
Alexandra: Oh, and mom, he even changed his name to Tyler.
Me: Laughing hysterically trying not to make Alexandra feel bad.
Alexandra: Looks at me strangely.
Me: I don't think it's the same kid.
Alexandra: Yeah it's him. It looks just like him. He has blonde hair and blue eyes!

Alexandra is still sticking with her story! She really thinks he is suffering from a mental illness!!
I can only imagine what he thinks of her!
Isabel's first day, which was the following day, did not go over so smoothly.

Isabel: I get to ride on the bus! I get to ride on the bus! I get to ride on the bus! (This goes on for about 1 hr and the whole walk to the stop.
Me: Seeing the bus stop up the street and leaving.... OOOH NOOO!!!! Ummm... Isabel, I think we missed the bus!
Isabel: Whahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! I didn't get to ride the bus... I wanted to ride the bus! Whahhhhhhhhh! (This really was an understatement of her reaction)
To make matters worse, a parents comes walking down from the stop and says, " Uhh, I think you guys missed the bus!

What a beginning!

Isabel came home and told us she had a restroom in her classroom.
Isabel: The potty was too small so I stood up and peed.
Me: Thinking.. oh my gosh, I feel so bad for the next kid who had to use the potty!
Another funny:

Isabel: I shouldn't wear heel-has to school. We have recess and I could get hurt! ( First off, the kid owns all flats and secondly, it was way too funny.. hi heels interpreted as heel-has)


Day 2 making it on the bus successfully!

That sums up our first day of school! Can't wait to hear yours!

Way too funny. Alexandra really is a fascinating young lady, especially when it comes to blond haired, blue eyed boys. You'd better keep an eye on her. And what can you say about Isabel? She's Isabel. :-}
