1st day of school!

tuesday was the first day of school!!
don't they look excited?
and fresh-faced?
and dewy?
we only have pictures from before school because kalei and koa did not want me to stand around and take pictures of them walking into their classrooms, finding their seats, putting away their things in their new desks, etc. kalei especially did not want me to do anything remotely embarassing. (which makes me want to follow her around and break into show tunes and re-enact my favorite numbers from 'so you think you can dance,' for some reason.) man, kids hit fourth grade and suddenly they care if their parents are making a public spectacle of themselves. sheesh. (don't worry, i behaved myself.)

kawelo wanted in on the photo-op, and was sad that his school didn't start until thursday, but he took solace in a big hug from this guy:

... and then we came home and ate m&m's.
what is that teaching him?
that's right! we want our friends sweet enough to eat.
(and that's as close to homeschooling as i'll ever get.)
