The kids were excited to start school today. Not so excited to get up, but that's to be expected.
Matthew was happy, grinning, goofy, and wanted to hold my hand instead of pulling away and complaining. He showed everyone his new Transformers lunchbox. Those who didn't heed his call were poked and forced to look at the Transformers lunchbox until they were appropriately amazed.
There were 15 kids at the bus stop today. That is probably double the number that will be riding the bus the rest of the year... Notice also how many girls there are. We found out yesterday that there may be 3 more sisters joining the school in a week. So, that will officially make the the neighborhood odds roughly 14 to 4 in favor of the girls. If you added youngsters not in school yet, you'd have to bring that up to 23 to 5 (including 3 sets of twin girls). Seriously, there's something in the water here that makes more girls.
Quote of the day: Allison and Julia saw the moon still out as we were walking to the bus stop and told Matthew, "Look, there's the moon." Matthew looks up and says, "Yeah, but he's not my friend."
