FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL!!!
Donovan in his uniform - huge grin (very proud). 
Sean in his new uniform going to grade 5 (a very good big brother).
Sean and Donovan together, ready (I hope) for their first day at school.
First of all let me say that I am very happy that I am not a grade school teacher today. If I have ever seen a school in chaos and exitement it is Donovan's Primary School this morning. He is very excited to go and be in Big School at last, he has really waited for this day to come for a very long time. And because Mark has now gone to High School, Sean is very happy to be the Big Brother in the primary school. I think this year is going to be a good year him.
Mark was very stressed out and nervous this morning I think, cause he was very grumpy and nothing seemed to fit right for him. I think he feels out of sorts in a new uniform and he didn't want his picture taken - he wasn't feeling very much like smiling. But I will get one of him when he feels less stressed. He will soon realise that high school is not all that scary and he will settle in. I will leave him be for a few days - just so he can start to feel a little more at ease in his own skin again. He does look very dashing in his uniform though.
I think by Monday we should all be feeling more relaxed...
