First grade already — where does the time go!

Kidlet really didn’t want to get up and go to school today.  I’m pretty sure it wasn’t nerves (kidlet is so far from shy and retiring), but just a desire to stay home and play.  Still, it can’t hurt to remind him that I am thinking about him today.

Just like last year, for the first day we have hand shaped sandwiches with little hearts (the kisses) cut out of the palm, ala “The Kissing Hand“.  I got a new (smaller) hand cutter this year.  The one from last year was basically life sized and takes up too much space in a regular sized bento box.

Ham and cheese sandwiches, carrot and tomato, ranch dressing, black grapes.
