I can not believe today was the last day of summer vacation and tomorrow C will be a 2nd grader and D will start kindergarten! We have had a GREAT summer and I am not certain that I am ready for it to be over but the girls are SUPER EXCITED to be going back to school.
Here is a glimpse at what has kept us busy over the summer...
We had Open House at the girls school on Aug. 31st. Here is C with her teacher. After Open House C said to me "Mom, I think I'm going to have a great time in 2nd grade and I'm not going to want it to end!" In Kindergarten she told me "Mommy I want to stay a kindergartener forever". Seems I couldn't figure out a way to make that happen so here we are... on to 2nd grade already. She knows several kids in her class this year and thinks her teacher seems "very nice" :) I am sure she will have a great year!

Here is D with her kindergarten teacher. D is very excited to be going to "my big girl school". We had "Kindergarten Round-up" for her on Aug. 17th. She got to ride the bus, play with other kindergartens and meet the teachers. On the way home that night she said "Mommy I get to go to 1st grade now". Gee... let's not rush things too much! Mom can barely handle kindergarten! I even tried convincing A that she wasn't big enough to go to Kindergarten because she couldn't reach the soap dispenser in the bathroom but her teacher helped her out and soap is now readily available for her ;) I can't wait to see how Little Miss D grows this year!
