Such a Big Girl

The time has arrived. It seemed like only yesterday our little girl was handing out flowers and spreading peace.

Now she's a big girl going to kindergarten.

The first day was good. She was anxious to get going and kept reminding us that we don't want to be late.

When we dropped her off, she had no trouble. I expected to be the one to get emotional. First, because it's me. Second, because I'm pregnant. I surprisingly didn't have a hard time. Jr., on the other hand, did. After Nichole went in to her classroom, he kept saying that he wanted to go in, too. We finally convinced him that we could do something special at home. So it was decided that we'd have a treat and he was a little happier.

When we picked Nichole up, Jr. was so happy to see his sister. She was pretty calm about the whole thing, but it sounded like she did have a good first day.

My big girl.
