Well, the first day of 1st grade went off without a hitch! Madeline got up extra early that day as she was excited not only about school but about wearing her new clothes and bringing her new backpack/messenger bag and lunchbox to school. It's funny how her clothes resemble that of my Catholic school uniforms......and she picked it out! Must be in her genes!
We can hardly believe we have a first grader! We are so excited about all she will learn this year (although she did get a head start with all the 1st grade materials I brought home last year when I was teaching! oops!) She has become such a good reader and everyday we are amazed atw quick of a learner she is. She seems to like her teacher and is very comfortable at school.
In addition to school, she and Izzy have dance every Monday and Thursday. She's also in a Daisy troop which meets every other Tuesday and CCD will be held every Wednesday. Needless to say she'll be one busy girl and I'll be one busy taxi driver!
We are so proud of her!

What a good looking group. They grow up so fast. Lee, where is your pink shirt?
you guys do a great job with this (Merry)...LOL Anyway, you totally get it with "where does the time go?" Sometimes it's hard to enjoy the moment, but enjoy every moment, cause the next time you look, it will be high school, college, marriage & then you'll be old like me! love you guys, Aunt Trish
