Back to School

Today was the first day of the new school year for kids in Harrison County West Virginia. And today Raven officially became a member of the 5th grade. One more year and she will be in junior high! Is it just me or does the years seem to go by faster as you get older?

She likes her teacher, but then again she has liked every teacher she has ever had. She came bouncing of the school bus (they got off 2 hours early since it is the first day) happy that a few of her friends are in the same class as her. She’s also happy cause the teacher told her that she does not give out homework on the weekends so that makes this school year seem brighter all ready. Of course I had all kinds of papers to sign and fill out for Raven to take back to school tomorrow but I got those taken care of about 1/2 hour after Raven came home. Now we are just waiting for Mike to get home from work so Raven can talk his ear off about her first day and we can eat dinner.
