A Bundle of Firsts

First day of school: in most places it conjures up images of newly sharpened pencil bouquets, crisp fall leaves and argyle sweaters. Where I live it means dragging yourself from the pool and trying to last six hours in school without slurping a sno-cap. We dug in our heels. We tried to stop the steamroller. But school started anyway.

We have many first-day of school traditions. One of them is the infamous FRONT PORCH PICTURE started by my mom and dad.
