First Day of School Photos

Today is the first day of school for CUSD. I could feel it as I saw parents walking their children to their classrooms. I continue to see it in Facebook all day as people post their first-day-of-school photos.

This is now such a tradition that people take multiple photos. In one morning. As far as I can tell, this photo is the only one of me on my first day as a student. It was 6th grade in Wichita, Kansas, taken in front of the garage door. Note the culottes, the lack of backpack (just a notebook), and Mom's shadow as she snaps the pic.
