1st Day of School

Today was my kid's first day of school. I was quite excited for them, they were starting 1st grade. I started out by making my kids Bento lunches for school which I was happy with. Especially since it was my first time. They definitely were not as creative as what I have seen online but I did it. After I got ready for work and the kids ready for school we headed out the door. Did we drive to school you ask? Why no we did not. We walked. Yes, it is the year 2010 and my kids and I and the dog actually walked to school. The kids were pretty excited and I felt really good about what we were doing. I know I saw a few surprised looks from some of the other moms that passed me in their cars. It felt good. I got to work later than I would have wanted but I know that I was doing a good thing for my kids and myself. Let's just hope I can keep it up.
