patiently waiting
She was yelling Kindergarten
Walking like an egyptian
Not only is this the name of one of our favorite books, but today was Lily's big day. The first day of kindergarten is amazing. It is the beginning of responsibility, they have no idea. Last night we laid out the clothes and sock on the couch down stairs and bathed. This morning I woke Little L at 6 am. She was so excited for the day. With her backpack full of stuff for the teacher she got to carry her lunch bag which made her day. The most nerve racking thing for me was the bus ride it is long and the sun is hot, so I stuck a bottle of water in her bag. To this she said "no drinks on the bus mommy" I told her water doesn't count. When she got home the water was gone she told me she "drank it sneaky so she wouldn't get caught", what have I started?
L has Mrs. Strait, who was also Lee's kindergarten teacher. This is special to me. I like showing the children where we lived when we were little, places we played, so to have the same teacher thrilled me (especially since I think she is a great person). Lily's first day consisted of going to computer lab ( not using computers) and meeting the school nurse (who lily already knows from Prek so it was a reunion), lunch and recess. That is all I have gotten out of her so far. Hopefully tomorrow brings more stories...

i know, doesn't it feel like you have to pull the info out of them. it's like i'm a hoover vac trying to suck whatever i can out of maddie each day. Lily looks like a cutie; did she just love it? M really likes it, and keeps asking me everyday if she gets to go back. ughh. YEAH!!! FOREVER!!! :(
anyway, it's actually been nice at the house. quiet and peaceful. B is finally getting to play with some of the toys he hasn't been able to touch for years. he's in heaven.
ps. Mrs. Strait was my kindergarten teacher too. fun stuff. i'm gonna send you a pic to your email.
Oh gosh, who's a cutie bug! Congrats to your little one! It was like 50 degrees out when we took back to school pics so we layered clothes!!! I SO can't wait for fall to just GET HERE already!
Write when you can. Me
She is so cute Flipper! Oh my heck! The first day of school is a huge day and an emotional one at that!
Before we moved Ben was going to have to ride the bus and I was crazy worried about it. -only because I'm an overprotective mom though. :)
Glad it was a good day for her. You are a really good mom, I can tell!
Love you!
Becca- I was a wreck over her riding the bus and then she had a bus accident on day3 of school! Talk about a nightmare.
