Happy 2012 school year - for everyone!

Happy start of 2nd grade to Caleb!


And look who gets to start preschool this year!








A couple weeks after preschool started, their new backpacks arrived in the mail and boy, were they in love!  The first few weeks they were both trying so hard to get used to everything that was new and different.  We had some hard moments, like on the first full day (which is only three hours) on the way home, Avery fell apart because "Presley was taking up all the things I wanted to tell you "  Needless to say, I have learned to be very careful about having them take turns when reporting on their day.  They do get to do show and share on the same day, which is awesome, but each day one of the kids takes a turn being the "special critter" for the day.  That person gets to help out with things, be the line leader, etc.  Well, Avery got to do it first out of the two of them and when I picked them up that day Presley was in tears, saying "they should have had us do it TOGETHER because we're sisters and friends".  What could I say to that??
