First grade here we come...

I cannot believe we have a first grader in our home!!  It really does seem like we were just loading her up in her infant carrier for the first time and driving home from the hospital.  I love this girl more than life itself.  She is ninety-nine percent attitude....my feisty, feisty girl! 

We decided to change schools this year.  It's not that we disliked her old school, but her new school is a small school that her two cousins go to.  There are approximately one hundred students.  It's about as close to homeschooling as you can get, without doing it yourself.  It's an excelling school, and as a bonus, she only goes four days a week!  She has been a little nervous to start a new school, because she knows her last one so well.  But, she is getting more excited. She received a letter in the mail from her teacher yesterday, and that REALLY got her excited.  I went to the store and picked up her school supplies and surprised her in the morning.  She said to me "mom, how many more days of summer are there, because I sort of miss school"....awwww!  Only three more weeks!
