School Boom

We did it...I mean she did it.

Kindey-garten gal.



She woke up too early, so we had time to kill.





P.S. Her parents are big babies.



Here's to crossing my fingers that she makes it home!

Honestly, she is just cute as a button.


P.S. She hopped right off the bus and ran up to me...

No, "Mom, did you survive?"
No, "I missed you and can't be away from you."

Nope.

She just asked, "Can I watch a show?"

I made the mistake of looking at this right before going to teach my first period...big mistake! She looks so old!

I'm so proud of you, Travis and Jenn, for being strong.

Oh, and I'm proud of you too, Lexi! :)

Aw, Lex is the cutest thing!

And don't feel wimpy- my mom told me she dropped me off for school and then sat in the parking lot and sobbed.

another note:

I used to follow my kids to and from school on the first day. They hated it, and I just cried. Now that I have to take them to school everyday...I am kinda missing the bus. Sigh...we are never happy!

CYD said...

Hooray-she did it! All the worrying about that first day is over.

(Jackie-you may not cry, but you puke. Face it)

So cute! I can't believe she is that big! Not to worry, I hear 'watch a show' about 126 times a day as well. I hope she has a great year. I would love to have her in my class!
