Fwd: First day of School!

>> Thursday the 21st of August 2014 was Oskar's big day! He is officially a first grader! The Germans, rightfully so, really celebrate the first day of school. Every child is presented by their parents and/or grandparents a "Schultüte", which is a bag, actually more like a paper cone, filled with sweets, fruit and sometimes small presents!
>>
>> Oskar was holding his Schultüte very proudly and said his first day of school was amazing! I hope the feeling lasts for the rest of the year!
>>
>> He will be attending a 50% - 50% English - German school and it's a very international school. I love it so much that at times wish I was a child to attend such a great school.
>>
>> Have a great, fun, exciting and productive year Schnutzy mou! Yiayia would be very proud of you!
>>
>> I love you immensely!
