First Grade!

Erin starts first grade today!


Rob took her to "Meet the Teacher" day on Friday, and she was pretty shy with her new teacher. But she got to pick out her own desk, and her teacher showed her where to get her textbooks and everything for her desk, so that made her feel pretty grown-up. She's excited that she already knows several kids in her class, and some more of her friends are starting kindergarten, so she's glad she'll get to see them at school this year.

She could hardly wait to get out the door this morning! Wouldn't it be great if we always felt that way about going to school? As opposed to dragging yourself out of bed in college and telling yourself it's OK to go to class in your pajama bottoms if it's before 10:00 am. :)

I'm excited to hear all about her day when she comes home.

She is so cute in her 1st day of school clothes! My kids are past the excitement since they started last week... now we have to drag them out of bed. The excitement didn't last long!

She is just a mini Kandice! She is so cute! And by the way...I went to my 8:00a.m. "how to study"class most of the time without a bra!!!well you know back in the day when they were barely noticable!

Holy Smokes! Look at your big girl! How time does fly! Congrats Erin!
PS I totally forgot about the watermelon! Great memories! This may be the very reason I can't grow them. I should have just prayed over the darn thing!
