First Day of School

Henry and Elsa begin school today. Getting them off this morning went off without a hitch. Probably because they weren't concerned about having to speak French this year.

This will be the first full day of school for both of them. In Switzerland, they would go to class from 8am to 11:30, then home for lunch (and sometime the Wii) for two hours, then back to school from 1:30 to 4:30. Fingers crossed that they don't start jonesing for the Wii in the middle of the afternoon.

I love that Henry has a "nice" shirt on. Atticus wears stuff like that to church! He doesn't believe button shirts are necessary cuz the amish dont!
Elsa looks like she is going on 12!
What a bunch of cute american school kids! I kind of understand the way they must feel going to school and not having to speak another language. I was always grateful and relieved to go back to english from french on my mission!! phew!!!!
