FIRST GRADE!


FIRST GRADE!

Today is Abby's first day of first grade! She was just itching to get out the door this morning. Seriously, she woke up at 7:00 and by 7:30 was asking if it was time to go. And she kept asking every five minutes until we left! We made it to school in PLENTY of time after riding up the street about a mile to School. It looks like Abby's class will be studying BUGS to start with. She was shy and pouty when it was time for Noah and me to leave, but I think she will be over the newness in a day or two. So Noah and I are on our own. He is eating a cheese snack and drinking milk (and dumping milk in order to wipe it across his high chair tray...ah, boys...). We've got another 45 minutes to play before nap time.

It is a great joy to be able to see Abby grow up and experience new things. We're aware of how precious her life is and how special each day with her is to all of us.
