Yesterday was Zoey’s first day of school. It was pretty exciting for us since last year her “first day” was in December, long after most kids had started. There wasn’t much fanfare or excitement about “back to school” season then. Even now, she’s starting two weeks later than the rest of the Seattle schools, but at least its the same day as all her classmates.

She wasn’t really able to tell me much about her first day of school, but she seemed happy. Worn out, but happy. I think that’s all I can ask for.
