First Day of School

First Day of Second Grade!

An exciting and fun day for my baby girl~ her first day of second grade. She is in a class with a lot of friends and feels very comfortable and bossy having been going to school for "so" long now. She was up and out of bed just a little after 6 this morning and in the shower without me having to say anything. I didn't wake her up or tell her to get in the shower.

She was all ready and waiting to leave the house just about an hour before time for us to leave. We walked to school with several friends from our complex and neighborhood. A joyful little parade chatting and laughing on our way to school.

This year she has a teacher that has never had one of her siblings, so a chance to make her very own impressions without one of the other kids past influencing expectations of her.

She came home from school as excited as when she left this morning. All the way home she chattered about her teacher, sitting next to this friend and not next to that one and so on. She was extra excited about 2 computer lab times instead of just one.

Yay for a GREAT start to what is going to be great school year!
