First Day of School ~ Please Share Yours



Recommended Posts

I would love to see pics of all your kids starting school.

Yesterday my son started Pre-K. He is fortunate enough to have the same teacher as last year. We have become good friends and stayed in contact over the summer. She is true treasure!!!

The little girl is the one I mentioned in the prayer thread that has leukemia. She was approved to return to school on a day to day basis. Please pray for her. She wasn't there 5 min until she had her wig off showing the kids her shaved head. She is so precious. She claims my son as her best friend and insisted on getting in on this pic. Perhaps she could be considered his first girlfriend. God help me, I'm not ready for that yet!!!

Unfortunately I dont have any on the computer or camera - my boys started school before digital cameras were commonplace and we dont have a scanner, no need for one generally.

But believe me, they were very very CUTE. Crisp new uniforms, new haircuts, shiny shoes, pity that doesnt last.

Eliza starts school in 2008 and I cant wait to see her all dressed up in her little uniform, lol.

Nana ~ I will probably get to that point. We are in PreK so pics are essential.

sugarplum ~ Don't forget the pics next week. Would LOVE to see them.

My son starts his freshman year of high school on Tuesday, Sept. 5th. However, MY first day back is tomorrow as I am a secretary for a principal at the middle school :) I'll have to take pics next week. Your son and his "girlfriend" are very sweet! I'll keep her in my thoughts and prayers.

You mean your son will LET you take his pic? Can't wait to see it.

Good luck on your first day back. Sounds like an interesting job. I bet you have seen it ALL. Talk about drama. Nothing like middle school. :biggrin1:

Thanks for your prayers!! :angel:

:clap2: No pics yet, school doesn't start for my preschooler till tuesday. School does start for Amanda, my 22yo tomorrow, and guess what? I'll be there in the morning before she leaves for a pic in front of her front door. I know she seems too old, but it's a tradition. Every year on the first day, kids were stood against the front door for a pic, they HATED it! Last year when she lived on campus, she called after the first day and confided that she missed having that 1st day pic. Well, not to worry this year, I've got it covered! My youngest however is already posing for hers and can't wait for the picture time, lol!

I just put my son on the bus. This is his first time on the bus. He is in Kindergarten this year. He looked so sweet with his little backpack. I am so anxious. I know I should not call the school, but I just want to make sure he made it OK!

All five of my boys are going to school this year! I will have 4 hours a week to myself. Hmm, what will I do? Probably sleep, I work midnights! I have one starting pre-school, one starting kindergarten, and one starting high school. A big year for three of them! The other two aren't very excited, same old school and all. Will post pics next week when my preschooler starts!

I was going to post online the pictures of me when I started school, but the stone tablets broke while I tried to run them through my scanner.:faint:

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
