O Happy Day!

What a day! The first day of school dawned sunny, humid and warm. The kids were up at 6:45 and ready to go by 7:08. They got to school and dropped Jacob off, who departed with little fanfare and the typical Weddle-male "can do until I realize how much this stinks by second grade" attitude. Jacob is now going all day to school and coming home on the bus with his sisters.   Elizabeth, who put her backpack and supplies in her locker last Thursday at orientation, was rudely greeted by her backpack being gone. Which produced the following lecture from her father, "I told you! I told you last Thursday not to leave your backpack. But no, you knew din'tchya. Just a harmless little locker." They eat stuff I tellsya. The backpack was later found in another locker as someone went around switching people's stuff.   Belinda was also rudely greeted by finding out she was in the wrong class, causing her to get into her new class pretty much as the last kid. However, this was a thrilling moment for Belinda's father because Belinda's new teacher is Mr. Ashbrenner. That's right, a Mr! Down with excessive femininity in public schools!
 
Mom and Dad high-fived in the car and enjoyed their day. Kids made it home on the bus. Only mishap of the day is that Jacob decided to have hot lunch with the typical Weddle-male "Hey, if it looks good; eat it" attitude.
