First Day of First Grade











I officially have a First Grader! Tate was so excited to start school today she came downstairs at 7:15 dressed and ready to go. We found out last week who her teacher was and Taylor was beyond excited. She got Mrs. Manicom. She taught Kinder last year and was across the hall from Taylors room. Becuase of Tate's asthma on days she couldn't play outside she would hangout with Mrs. Manicom. Taylor actually jumped around like a loon when she found out!

When we dropped her off todayMrs. Manicom was at her door and when she saw Tate just gave her the biggest hug. I told her how excited tate was to get her and she said she was just as excited when she found out she had Taylor becuase Taylor was such a sweet girl and just loved to learn! Could we be any prouder!! Before we walked her in she was like "mom we need to stop and pray for my day." YES WE DO!!!! Love this kid.

She was so big she didn't want to hold our hands and she just walked in and started unpacking her stuff and that was it. The saddest part was Jake's reaction. He was really sad she wasn't going to be here (as was I...who is going to entertain these boys UGH").

I am dying to know how her day is going!!

As usual, your family is precious.

I thought of you this week as I was doing a happy dance because...

One Tree Hill starts Monday! Woo Hoo!

Ok, so you're my only friend that is going to be excited about it, and my husband just rolls his eyes that I have watched the finale from last year three times this week to get myself ready...
