a foggy first day

Austin's first day of first grade. We set his alarm last night for 6:30am this morning, leaving him plenty of time to get dressed, eat a bowl of cereal, brush his teeth, eat his vitamin, get his socks and shoes on...and for me to get rid of the hairs sticking up on his head...kisses and hugs, and a few morning photos before daddy took them to town at 7:00am. He woke himself up early, got dressed and made his way to my bathroom where I was in the shower...knocked and waited for me to say "come in". He came in and I was surprised at what I saw. He was a wee bit excited for his first day, I think. :) I told him to turn his alarm off, since it hadn't gone off yet, and to go down and get a bowl of cereal and he could watch a show on the tele. If only every morning would be like this. That would be bliss. So I leave you with a few shots of my first grader, among the fog (first day of kinder was foggy, too. Remember?) who had a fantabulous day of school today.
