Emma at her desk!
We woke up bright and early this morning to get ready for the first day of school! This was not so easy on me, considering I have thoroughly enjoyed getting out of my bed in a more leisurely fashion all summer long. I actually had to set an alarm, but I did it! Emma was very easy to awaken as she knew it was "the big day"! She got dressed, ate breakfast, and posed for her annual first day of school picture. I woke Eli up just in time to put him in the car and go. It was a family event as John drove in his truck and met us at the school too. Emma walked confidently (remembering just where to go) and was happy to have us all with her. I'm not sure how long that will last, but I sure enjoy it! Anyway, I look forward to picking her up this afternoon and hearing all about it. Of course, she will probably just respond with "Fine" or "Good" when I inquire about her day, but we'll see! I am very excited for her and I'm sure she will have a great 1st grade year!
