Shane Goes To Middle School

I know!  I know!

Where did the time go?  Well, it went and here it is.  We have a middle schooler.  Pre-teen hormones and all as he will tell you when he is being not so nice.  After the fact, of course.  When he's slinking in to apologize for his outburst.  :-|

First Day of School

Don't you love his big boy haircut?  :)

First time I haven't walked him to the bus stop.  :(

Hanging out with the other hormonal preteens waiting for the bus.

Even though he didn't want me to walk him to the bus, it didn't stop me from making sure he got on it.  :p

When he got home, I asked him the obligatory "how was school" question never expecting that he would respond in any other way that "fine."

But to my surprise and joy (lol), he gave me the full run down.  The first thing that he said was that the cafeteria was way better than FFES.  Apparently the Big Daddy Cheese Pizza (lololol) is "more chewy with way better cheese than what they serve at the elementary school.

He said he was the first one to be able to open up his locker.  How many times do you think that he practiced the combo in his head before he got to school?  I'm betting at least 100!

So overall, he had a great day.  He knows a lot of kids in his classes so that should help ease the transition to middle school for him.

Check out other first days of school.  Apparently he really likes the Clemson shirt.  ;)
