first days of school

Amelia's first day was actually a week or so ago.  She's so grown-up now that it's pretty much a non-event.

This one, however, had his first official school day today.

See how happy he was in the picture?  That was before we got to school.  I'm told that after I left him, he cried for half an hour, only to be consoled by the preschool director's banjo playing.
