Penny had her first day of school yesterday, and she could not have been more excited to be a third grader. Dropoff was chaos, as usual, and I still can't get used to just leaving her in the yard and not getting to see the inside of her classroom until October, but she is a total pro at school.

| Milo both did and did not want to take pictures this morning. |
While Penny was at school, I decided Milo needed a lesson as well, so he learned how to use scissors. One LL Bean catalog sacrificed for the greater good.

| I found a pair that fit his hand better, early childhood educators. Do not fret. |
Also, because I can't help myself, we laid out all of the Early Reader books and I showed him what "Dr. Seuss" looks like and he picked out which ones were written by him, and the three that were not. LEARNING.
When we picked Penny up, she decided she wanted to go out for ice cream, and then had her first violin practice as a third grader.
She had some math homework, we did a bunch of paperwork, and that's it. She's in third grade for real. She's going to learn cursive and have computer lab and chess and all sorts of real things. I am so happy to be getting back into the swing of things - Summer is great, but we love school around here!
Meeeer
