Our Youngest Is Starting High School!

Our Youngest Is Starting High School!

Hey Everyone,

It’s hard to believe, but our youngest started high school this week. He’s officially a freshman!

I’m sure many of you can relate to that strange feeling of wondering how your little kid suddenly became a high school student. Even crazier, Brett is already an inch taller than me—and he’s only 14! I had to put him in a bear hug just to get a first-day-of-school picture together…and I almost lost.

His first day was definitely different from when his sister started high school.

She had her outfit picked out days in advance, along with the shoes, hair, and accessories.

The boy couldn’t have cared less.

She was happy to take pictures to document the big day.

He basically had to be physically restrained long enough to get one photo.

One thing I still can’t get used to is starting school at the beginning of August. I grew up going back after Labor Day, when summer was actually over. Starting school while it’s still 110 degrees outside just doesn’t feel right. If you can fry an egg on the sidewalk, it should still be summer vacation!

Have a great weekend!
