It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year...

Ah, yes...I love that Staples commercial where the parents are gleefully purchasing school supplies as the children look miserable because school is starting back up! Today is the first day of school at M'KIS and this mom is thrilled. (And her children were pretty happy to be heading back, also!)

Grayson insisted that his dad wake him up this morning and he wanted to be woken up to the words: Wakey, Wakey, Eggs and Bacy! And, he also insisted that his dad prepare this breakfast for him. Oh, vey! Where did this kid come from? But, Blaine did just that this morning and both kids seemed ready to rock their first day.

Both boys have teachers who are new to M'KIS this year...which in case you missed the Facebook post the other night, here's a snippet of a conversation with Grayson in regards to who he'd like to be his teacher this year:

Me: Grayson, we get to find out who your teacher is tomorrow. Is there a particular teacher you would like?
Grayson: I'll take one of the new ones. They usually don't know what's going on...so they act really nice.

Yup, his wish was answered. Along with the fact that his two best buddies from last year are in his class and life is good.

Caleb also has his good friend, Chad, in his class...so he was over the moon. This year will definitely be easier than last year for him. We even sent him to school today with an assignment to meet one new student and learn 3 things about that new student. It shouldn't be hard as we were briefly introduced to a new boy, Jared, yesterday from the States who will be joining the KL All Stars this year and is in his class.

And, I'm back in my happy routine this morning...CrossFit, coffee and blogging. Enjoying my favourite seat at Publika, drinking my mocha and watching the people.

Life is good.
