File under: Things I find impossible to believe. Especially when revisiting this post from the first day of kindergarten. Wasn’t that just yesterday? How can it be a year ago?
But in the tradition of all good parents, I took some pictures of her first day. She was really excited…and then suddenly really nervous. But she’s going to know all of the kids in her class, and her teacher seems extremely nice, so I know she’ll be fine. Really, I can’t wait to see what this year holds, even if it is hard to believe she’s in first grade (I’ll need to say it a few hundred more times before it sinks in). And I admit, when I texted Josh the picture of Brianna with her teacher, and said “here’s our baby” I suddenly got REALLY teary.
So, here she is. My first grader. *sniff* (the goofy faces were all her idea)
Isn’t she beautiful?
With her new teacher!
Honestly, I’m so excited for her, because I think she’s going to have a great year. But in the spirit of last year’s post, and the wee bit of melancholy I’m feeling, here I am (I’m blue…)
Awww, she’s so cute! I hope she has a terrific year!
Aww *pats you* It will be okay. She’s a cutie pie, and she looks ready to tackle the new year.
My girl started sixth grade a few weeks ago, and she brought home a brochure for a junior high school ring. I was floored. Where did my baby go?
She is just so grown up! I can’t believe that our babies are this big and it was so fast! Where did the time go?
Happy first day of first grade, mom. I loved those years so much.
My youngest begins tenth grade in a couple days and, with the other two away at college, I am totally glomming on that poor child. Don’t leave me!
