Back-to-school | 1st Graders!

“I gotta go back, back, back to school again
Whoa whoa, I gotta go, Back to School……AGAIN!”  – Grease

She jumped out of bed!  Despite my night owl’s lack of sleep the night before, she was happy to see the sun rise, dress herself in her chosen back-to-school outfit, eat a healthy breakfast and strut her new personalized Target backpack!

He on the other hand had a rough night.  Any time there is a change in temperature his bronchial issues flair up.  And of course it would have to happen the night before the first day of school.  Needless to day, it was a long night of breathing treatments, but he mustered up the energy the next morning, threw on his clothes, brushed teeth and then firmly told me I could only take TWO PICTURES…and then he was done!

Ohhhh…the life of a photographer’s kid.

It was an amazing first day.  The hubby and I are thrilled about our new teacher, excited about them making new friends and in love with watching them grow, succeed and flourish into their own little person.

What a gift this truly is.

Until next year’s back-to-school-front-porch-portrait…we’ll embrace and cherish this beautiful year of 1st Grade!  Come check us out on Instagram for all the latest and crazy twinkie action!
