So, just like everyone else, I'm sad to see the summer go. I'm more sad to see our "summer hours" go but it's time. The time where we get up super, duper early to leave the house by 835 to get to school in time for us to chat and take our time walking in.
Mike and I really didn't know how the morning was going to. Was it going to be like last year? Was it going to be harder because she had the summer off? Was it going to be easier since she loved this school already? Our stomachs were turning all morning because of all the 'What ifs...' but we definitely tried to played it cool :).
And, Lily was so very excited! She was the first one out the door with her new backpack on and very anxious to get in the car so we wouldn't be late. On the drive there, she was a bit apprehensive but who isn't on the first day of school. So that's what we talked about and how this school isn't new, she knows everyone already.
We took more pictures outside the church and the second picture from the left you can tell that's her nervous smile :). But as you can see from the picture with her teacher, Mrs. Johnson, she feels right at home. And, there were no tears! From any of us! :)
While Lily was busy having fun at school this was also Emma's first day of being a part-time only! And, I do believe she loved it! We had breakfast at Panera and Emma not only loved the attention but it is certainly deserved and needed. But on a side note, she did miss her sissy bunches today.
And, to carry on tradition.
Daddy gave Lily some flowers when she got home from school!
Proud of you today Miss Lily!

Glad Lily's first day went well! Isn't nice to have some time with "the baby"? Enjoy!
The girls look so beautiful and so OLD. Cannot believe it. SO glad Lily loves school so much. Love the pics of you with Emma and Mike with Emma. Framed in her room I think. :) Thanks for sharing everything but I still am in denial that they are so old! :)
