Carson the big 1st grader


First day of 1st grade
Carson with Star Wars Backpack
 School started for Carson this morning.  He is going to Pioneer Elementary this year since we moved we changed school boundries.  We went last night to meet his teacher and are very excited for Ms. Sullivan this year.  We loved Mrs. Pfeiffer last year and hope this teacher will be just as great.  A lady in our ward says that she is really great and most of her kids have had Ms. Sullivan.  
Carson with Ms. Sullivan
 He picked out his clothes and made sure his Lego Star wars backpack and lunch box was filled with his school things, and was excited to go this morning although I think he was a little scared which he has every right to be.  I hate new things dealing with change and I could sense he did too.  Anyways I had Jeff come sit with the other kids while I took Carson to school.  As we were pulling up he asked if he could ride the bus home.  I told him I was planning on picking him up but if he wanted to ride the bus he could.  He chose the bus.  
Once we were there he also asked if I could take him to the playground and help him find his teacher.  I told him I would and off we went.  We found Ms. Sullivan and she showed him were to put his backpack and off he ran to play.  I know he will do really well in school.  
I also hope he has a better first day this year than he did last year.  A little kid stole his lunch last year on the first day.  It was sad.  I made sure his name was written on everything and in plain site this year.
We love you Carson and I will admit I was really sad when I got back to the car.  You are such a good little helper with your younger brothers that I will miss your help.  Love you buddy.
Off to play!!
Bye Mom
