Arthur's First Day of Kindergarten

Yes, Arthur's backpack is a grocery bag.
Mysteriously his Batman backpack disappeared the night before school. It is no where to be found. He had stated at the store that he wanted a new one. Hmmm.

Arthur was so excited for his first day of school. I had him take a bath the night before and we laid out his clothes for the day. I told him that when he got up in the morning that he needed to go and put his clothes on immediately. I set the alarm for 7am. Arthur woke up at 6:58am and had all of his clothes on by 7:01am. He was ready to go! For those of you who know Arthur, that was an amazing feat! Arthur is in the morning class with Mrs. Casey. Arthur is one of three boys and a sea of girls in his class. I think this is going to be a great year! He is already asking about high school.
