Today was a big day...Jimmy started school! In the Netherlands kids start school around their 4th birthday. Thus they have new kids starting all throughout the year.
Here are a few (okay, quite a few) pictures and video clips of our big day:

How cute! What a big boy. I love the pictures- pure joy. Is he attending a dutch school?
Wow! Big day! Way to go Mommy! How do you think you're going to do with this now? Feel any better after doing it once now?
That's a milestone you'll remember forever. :)
Sooo sad. My little boy is growing up...
Yep, you'll never forget the day he started school.
Yes, he is attending a Dutch school. I think he'll catch on pretty quickly though. The International schools were SO expensive and plus we want him to learn Dutch.
Yes, I feel much better about doing this now. It feels more do-able! I think we'll survive! :)
oh my! that is TOO cute! Loved the videos!
Does he know some Dutch already? They learn so quick when they're young. I bet he'll have it down real soon and be translating for you guys! :)
