First day of Kindergarten

So here it is... the first day of school for the next 15 or so years. There was much excitement, a few tears, a missing school bus, lonely siblings and by the end of the day... a tired girl!

Getting excited at breakfast...
All ready to meet the bus

with David & Kate
Waiting for the bus

...but the bus was very late, so we thought we might have missed it and just drove her into school...

waving goodbye!!

A very excited reunion at home! (go figure!)...and then we played school
So.... on DAY 2.... we tried the bus again, and this time we successfully caught it!

David plopped himself down on the grass and said he was going to wait for Bella to get home!
We planted a tree yesterday to remember her first day of school

...it hasn't grown yet.
