Before I Pack Tomorrow's Lunch...

Yesterday Ann Douglas wrote about "School's Eve". Thank you Ann.

Today, I'll write with relief that we got through the day. It was a day of firsts for J. - first day of full school; first day of grade one; first day at a new school; first day riding the bus to school (I followed in the van) and first day of French Immersion. I felt like someone's fist was around my heart all day, but J. was so brave!

To add to the emotions of the day, we were thrilled when the Snowbirds flew over the school to honour Captain Michael VandenBos. From our house, it looked almost as if they flew over the school, over our house and back to the school. What an incredible day! What an incredible story.
