Middle School!

I haven't blogged in months.  School started today so I'm going to start going back and filling in some summer blogs after I first post some first day of school pictures.

Middle school has brought a lot of feelings from the triplets.  Nervous, excited, dreading, anxious, mostly the unknown was killing them.  Sydney especially wants to know exactly what is going on before she does anything.  She asked everyone to tell her about middle school and listened to many words of advice from older friends.  Thankfully now a days, they have a 6th grade orientation 1/2 day where they familiarize all the newbies and help them feel a little more comfortable for the first real day of school tomorrow when all the "scary 7th and 8th graders" will be there.

Tanner, Connor and Sydney all got in the same pod,  bronze pod, but are in different home rooms.  This morning they would not walk to the bus stop because the only kids there were freshman, who also had orientation today.  I heard Tanner say to Connor "lets stick together today, okay?"  I'm so glad they have each other for new, kind of scary, situations.  Here's to a good school year!
