First Day of School 2012

Uh oh! Look who's in Kindergarten!\






 Here is Violet with her teacher, Mrs. Poelman (the same one Ava had last year. This is a really good thing!)

 Here are the girls SO excited:

 

 And my first grader who looks like she is turning 16...

 

And Ava with her teacher Mrs. Jones:




Violet reported to Ava that the "she was right, the teachers really were nice." Ava said all she did was color. And that I forgot her snack (but I didn't, it was just in a different pocket). They have the same recess, but when they went out it started raining (and it rained BUCKETS) so they had to go back inside. They get a solid A+ for the first day! Mom, on the other hand dropped the ball and didn't go inside to pick up Violet like she was supposed to, so Violet was one of the kids "left behind" with the student teacher. Poor thing. She didn't know it was a bad thing though so this is one of my free passes. Soon she will cry I'm sure, but hopefully it will not happen again.

In case you want to know what Ava and I wore for the first day of school click here. :) I'm sad my girls are away from me, but happy they will get to learn and have fun at school. It is also nice to know they are in good hands. We are blessed with a school that is in the top 20 in the state ... or as the principal says, "The NY Yankees of elementary schools!"
