Big brother goes to school

 

B is in 5th grade.  He enjoyed the independence of riding his bike to school.  It rained several days in the first 2 weeks so B was interested in getting the bus figured out.   He even rode L to school once when they tried to catch the bus and missed it while I was taking M to seminary.  This picture is from the first day they rode the bus home and came running up the sidewalk holding hands.  B has been very sweet about making sure L was OK.  It's hard on him when L takes too long.  L had bad behavior and I told him he couldn't ride until next week.  It's hard on B when L gets in trouble.
B is a sweet boy and he's doing a good job of figuring out school.
He told me he thinks he's the smartest kid in his class.  I'm not sure what makes him think that but I told him that whether he is smart or not he needs to do the work and not boast.
