When I went to wake up McG for her first day of preschool today, she immediately started grinning ear to ear while her eyes were still closed. As she tried to open her eyes, we had this discussion:
“Good morning!” I greet her.
“Where do you think we are going today,” she said before I can say anything else. (This is what I say when we have something fun to do that day.)
“I don’t know. Do you?” I answered.
“The beach,” she said quizzically.
“Noooo…” I said.
“I was just joking,” she said. “Church”
“Noooo…”
“Class school,” she at first whispered, then her voice got louder and higher in pitch as she did a little dance while her eyes were still closed, she was still laying down and had that same huge smile on her face.
Priceless.
The school hosted a donut breakfast and story time for the official first day of school for all the kids that started on Monday. We went to practice being on time, so technically the above photos are not from her first day of class.
We met up with some of her friends. Is the top middle photo not a foreshadowing for prom photos in about 15 years?
These are from her real first day of class. She picked out a “Keera backpack” (that is our chocolate lab’s name who is McG’s best friend.) She got to bring her favorite stuffed animal to class on the first day. This is her classroom door and her cubby.
She was still hyper when she got home and now is sleeping soundly. I’d say the day was pretty sublime for her.
Oh my goodness. I can just see that whole conversation happening. I remember holding her as a tiny baby when we first met you guys. Ahhh…time is going by way too fast!
