It is OFFICIAL you are looking at a bona fide "8th" grader. Today was the first day of school and our daughter was to excited to be "big man on campus" as the saying goes. I swear this kid has been jazzed about going back to school for the last 2 weeks, saying "I miss math homework" and "when do I get to see my teachers and friends". I am going to remind her of the "I miss math homework" when we are about (3) weeks into the first semester and she is complaining about having 45 math problems for homework each night!
As you will note from an earlier post we greeted this school year with the addition of a new hair cut and make-up...Woo Hoo! All went well this morning, she got up on time, got everything done and arrived in plenty of time to set up her locker. Now, I realize you are saying about now "it was only the first day", but a mother can hope this is will be her new mantra can't I?
The big bonus no homework tonight as they were busy setting classroom expectations, assigning text books and the like. I am hoping for more the same tomorrow and we will have at least one more homework free weekend!
