Welcome to Kindergarten and Roaring into 2nd Grade!!!

Besides being Gram's birthday, today was a HUGE day at our house. Caroline started Kindergarten! She was so excited and did so well for her first day. She seemed so happy with her teacher, and she loved that she got to go to art for her Specials class today. There were no tears from her, and she is set to go back tomorrow! She even got to ride the bus home with her sister today, which was a huge hit! This week they have short days, so the girls are only at school until 11:00 am. I think this makes the transition easier. I couldn't have been more proud of Caroline today, and I can't believe she is grown up enough to be in school full-time. I know she is going to have a wonderful year.

Allison was super excited for 2nd Grade. We dropped her off first, and she went right into the classroom. She came out talking a mile a minute, and she was very proud that she got chosen for homework the first day. She had to fill a sack with 5 things that she could use to tell the class about herself. She had fun filling up the sack this afternoon. She went to Science today for her Special class. She seemed like a pro with all the processes and procedures to follow. I'm so proud of her, too, and I can't believe how much she has grown up in the last year.

After school we celebrated with a Cookie Cake for starting Kindergarten and 2nd Grade!
