My children left this morning for school wearing their new school clothes...Andrew was in a 3 piece suit with an oxford shirt and a spiffy looking striped tie and
Miss Hannah wore her new school uniform. which consists of a black-watch plaid skirt, white blouse, dark blue jumper (that's a long sleeve pull over sweater for us Americans) and her school blazer.
This is our son Andrew's last year and our daughter Hannah's first year of high school.
Now if blogger would stop acting up I could add in these great pictures I've taken over the past couple of days!
Their first day at school went so much better than their orientation event the night before. I hope that today goes even better for them. I know how much they are missing their friends back in South Dakota. It's hardest on our son who won't be going to Home Coming or going to the school football games with his friends or hanging out at BK after going to a movie in town. I've got to stop beating myself up about this and think about how this is such a wonderful opportunity for him learning about foreign relations.
Now for me to finish getting ready to go to a retirement ceremony this afternoon.

Yeah..stop. Because even though he's missing these things, he's not asking you to beat yourself up over them.. There will be 'things' here too - just not with the same names. No idea what Home COming is, but I'm guessing he'll be welcomed into sports teams and the hanging out thing does happen, even with bus journies and miles between them, honest - it just takes them more than a day to work out the how and the when!
They both look marvellous btw!
