Boo Hoo! First day of school, we don't want to go back to school.
Matthew started Senior school today and Sarah had her very first day of Middle School. It was a big day for them both. We took our annual height photo and it will definetly be the last photo where I am taller than Sarah. Next year I will be in the front of the group.
Sarah and Matthew had beautiful new-style school hats as well and they both looked really smart.
The best part of the day was picking them both up and Sarah's first words were: 'I love Grade 7' and Matthew's 'It was great, I wasn't bored.'
They both liked their teachers and came home enthusiastic about school. Matthew helped Sarah organise her folders and timetable and they both completed their first day of homework without a complaint. A good start to the school year.
Ivan is back at work tomorrow and Elizabeth and I are heading to the gym after school drop-off.
A great day - well done children.

I LOVE the annual height photo, Beverly! Thank You! So wonderful to hear that Sarah had a successful first day of Year/Grade 7 ... Congratulations, Sarah! Cannot believe that Matthew is in SENIOR SCHOOL! Wow! Congratulations to you, too, Matthew, on a successful start to the year. :)
Thanks so much for the lovely photos Beverly, as you can well imagine they have already gone around the world so that everyone can see your family. I do feel that you definitely will be in the front of the queue in 2011. Never mind you are at the top of the kingdom with you being a great mother, wife and daughter to both Dad and I. We wish Ivan all the best in 2010 and I know you and Elizabeth will once again shine through at Uni. Go for it girl. !!!!!
Wonderful family photo, I love it! Glad to hear that the children are pleased with their school and so eager to get right to work in the books. The children sure do grow up fast, it seems I just blinked and now I'm going to be Gramma in a few short months! Where has the time gotten away to?
Cheers Beverly!
