When it comes to keeping my act together as a mother, I'm not exactly winning any awards. I don't scrapbook. These kids baby books are highly incomplete. I'm not even sure Mal's has anything written inside. But long ago, I made up my mind that if I did ONE THING, I would take a picture the first day of every school year.
As the years have gone on, I have gotten more resistance. Only from one particular male child and this year was no different. In fact, I suspect that things will just get worse in the coming years. Secretly, I'm hoping that his first day of college he'll text me a picture of himself saying "hey mom-it's the first day of school!"
In honor of the first week of school, a little flashback of first days...

| See? He's been rebelling against the pictures since the first day! |

| First day for Mo...that face! Those curls! |
 |
| Just 3 short years ago. SO much was happening that year. We were months away from moving to the other side of the world! |

| One of my favorites of this picture rebelling kid! |
And just like that...we have a 6th grader, 3rd grader and a kindergartner.
