First Day of 1st Grade

I can't believe my baby is in FIRST GRADE already!!! Where has the time gone? I remember the day we brought her home and all the feelings that came along with that moment. The pride, the love, the joy, the worry, and the fear of the unknown. I found myself with those same feelings on this first day of the new school year. Our little girl no longer wanted us to walk her into school , but wanted to ride the bus instead. This broke Ron's heart because he was really looking forward to driving her to school and walking her to class each morning. I guess we're no longer cool! HA. She did agree, however, to let us walk her to her class on the first day.

She's is doing beautifully so far this year. She loves her teacher, Ms. Melton and has improved her behavior 100% (knock on wood). She is now attending the After School Program at school instead of going to Day Care and she really enjoys it. Most of her homework is done before she gets home, which helps me out tremendously. She got her first progress report last week. We were super proud with her grades. She got 100% in all subjects, except for Math (98%) and Writing (85%). We were not surprised at the writing grade because she has a terrible handwriting. I believe that she is in such a hurry to finish the assignment, that she is super sloppy and truly doesn't care!

Enjoy the pics!

"That's ENOUGH already!"

It's going to be a WILD and CRAZY year!
