When they were younger, we did lunch with Dad on the first day, a couple years we went to Paint Your Heart Out, usually on the first day of public school.

I love looking back at them. My brother, who is 5 years younger, loved getting in on the pictures before he started school.<br><br>I like that even though you homeschool, you take pictures.
