The "first" day of school

It's precisely 100 degrees outside right now. It's really starting to cool down during the day now. This morning was the big morning. The first day of school for Atticus and Sherman. Surprisingly there were no tears from Mommy though because when we arrived at school we were informed by a very official looking paper that his highness the Emir had ordered that schools be postponed until next week on account of the swine flu. I was angry. I woke my precious babies at 6 AM, sped them through their cereal, showered them, forced them to stand still for pictures, and then had to listen to my husband stress about making it to work on time as we raced to school in the car together. Here are pictures of my older two, all ready for school.

Well, what's another week? They will officially start school on October 4. Don't you think that's a little late? It's starting to irk me because I'm already planning on cutting their school year short by returning to the states in May for a family campout. Good thing they are small and school doesn't really count yet. Right?
