Le Premier Jour De L'Ecole Pour Sam

The title is supposed to translate as

Sam's First Day Of School

but my French may not be perfect :)

Sam had his first day of Grade 1 yesterday. It was raining in the morning so these pictures were taken in the three minutes it wasn't raining. I was still in my pajamas because I am insane dedicated like that.

Sam had the idea that I should take a picture of him tipping his hat. As I was working on the sign he commented, "Then we'll use this to take pictures of me tomorrow, right Mommy? And I will have my backpack and my hat, right?" He knows how it works.

Sam is in French Immersion now which means that he'll have English half the day and French half the day. I've heard good things about both his teachers and his good friend from the past two years is in his class. I think he's going to have a great year!

Here are some "back to school" questions I asked Sam on Monday. Enjoy his answers!
