School got off to a great start this year! Madeleine & Harrison started on Monday, and then Charlotte started on Wednesday. The kids were excited to get back and see their friends.
Monday, Charlotte & I stayed home all day, except for her kindergarten testing appt. Then on Tuesday we had a super-fun day before kindergarten planned. She slept in, then we headed to get mani/pedis. :) I think she likes the spa treatments. Ha!
It was such a pretty day, we walked next door and had lunch outside on the patio at one of her favorite spots. I was feeling pretty good until we got to the end of lunch. Then it just started to hit me that these days with her are over. I started holding back tears for pretty much the rest of the day.
After lunch we went to Barnes & Noble and picked out a new book to read that night (along with our Kindergarten tradition -- The Kissing Hand).
And, got hot chocolate, of course. :)
Then it was on to Bath & Body to look for a Hand Sanitizer (or 5) for her lunch box.
She had gym that afternoon, then it was home for dinner & bed. We were up bright and early and off to her first day of school. She was beyond excited! It was finally her turn!
Walking to class.
She found her cubby right away.
And her seat.
I'm so so thankful for her sweet teacher, Mrs. Dougan. She is just perfect for our girl!
I thought about her all day, and one of my sweet friends at school checked on her at lunch and sent me this picture. Made my day!
We celebrated a great first week that weekend with a girls dinner with some friends while the boys had a night at home. It was great!
