First Day of School....

Well we all survived the first day. Abby was not the bright eyed cheerful child you will see in the photos above, when I first attempted to wake her up at 5:30. Once we got going Abby became very excited that this day had finally arrived, the day she would get to ride on the "Big Yellow School Bus." For a four year old riding the school bus feels like "you have finally arrived." For a mother of a four year old it almost made me cry, but like she told me last weekend, "Mom I am a big girl now." I just don't think it is fair when children use that line on their parents. This morning during breakfast she told me, "Today I am going to make a lot of new friends." Abby does not lack any confidence, that is for sure! After school Abby was very proud of the 3 stamps she had gotten today from her teacher. Apparently Abby was very good at standing on the silver line. She also had gym today, which was very exciting for her because she gets to exercise. She also tells me that tommorrow she will be getting homework. I am sure the coming days will be pretty eventful and enjoyable I will keep everyone posted!
