First Day of School

In the car ready to go!
Kaden ready to go in for his first big day
The outside of Kaden's school
Mommy and Caleb went to Starbucks and the duck pond while Kaden was at school! Now when we drop Kaden off at school, he usually asks if we're going to coffee and quack-quacks!  Sadly we can no longer feed the ducks at the duck pond here ( I used to bring my brothers when they were little and it was a blast). Is that a rule all over the country or just in liberal California?

We finally down loaded all the pictures off of our camera and have our computer set up so that it's semi-functional (how ever the internet we have out here is much slower then in Texas so that's driving me a bit insane!)  so wanted to post pictures of Kaden's first day of school! He is LOVING school. He had open house on Monday night and was so proud to show us around the room and his folder full of papers. It has really helped him to make friends and he's already found a pretty little girl friend that he's thinking about marring! What really blessed my heart was walking into class to pick him up one day and watching him work on one of his assignments. They were supposed to draw a picture of their friends that they play with at school. Kaden was drawing several of his friends and then I saw one little boy drawing a picture of Kaden and telling everyone that this was his new friend! So precious. Nothing blesses a mommy's heart more then someone loving her babies! 
  Tomorrow Kaden gets to take the prize bucket to school for show and tell. A very exciting day at our house! If you ask Kaden what his favorite part is, it's getting to pick a different job every day. So far he's been line leader, weather man, teachers helper, and paper man. :) I love that work is a joy! Hope he's always this excited about school...if he's anything like his daddy (who starts his masters program on Monday) he will be!
