You're off to Great Places!

Photobucket

What a beautiful morning it was to send our sweet girls off to big-kid school for the very first time.

Photobucket

Everyone was happy and not a tear was shed.

The dress I finished for Allison last night. With one of my favoirte lines from the book "Oh the Places You'll Go!"

I hope she has a terrific first day today. I can't wait to hear all about it over lunch.

Photobucket

Emily was a little bit timid about it, but we answered all of her questions and reassured her that she'll do great.

This little guy's excitement is from hearing the choo-choo trains off in the distance. Of course I'd like to think he's also excited about all the one-on-one time he'll get with me while the girls are off learning. ;)

Photobucket

They look so ready for their big day.

Photobucket

Their backpacks have lots of room for all this year with bring home.

Special Daddy snuggles just before heading to the bus stop which is just across the street. ;)

This pose is all Sam's doing. He can't wait for his turn.

We have a very busy stop!

Neighborhood friends.

And then it came.

Photobucket

And this is the best shot I got of them getting on. They couldn't hear us yelling to turn around. I'm sure they were very focused on what to do next. And I didn't have time to change my camera settings. :(

Photobucket

Whew...they found a seat together. And David said he could see Emily already talking to a friend across the isle, as they drove away.

Photobucket

Shouldn't looking for new mail always be this fun?

Photobucket

Can't wait to see you ladies in just 2 more hours!

fast approaching...6 and kindergarten

Happy almost 6th birthday Allison

Happy almost 6th birthday Emily

Photobucket

On Friday my girls will turn six and in just one week they start kindy. And much to our surprise they will be in the same classroom (as there is only one a.m. kindy class) this year. Oh dear!



To my sweet, sweet girls,

My how you have grown so quickly! I hope that you flourish in kindergarten and that you make lots of new friends.

Photobucket

Please be kind to each other and listen to your teacher. That is a life-long lesson that will serve you well.

Photobucket

I pray that your friendship will stand the test of class together and that you each blossom and grow by leaps and bounds this year.

Photobucket

And don't pick up too much bad stuff on the school bus from those older kids.

Love,
Mom
