School Days

Today was Avery's first day of Kindergarten! I thought I would be so excited to finally have her start school and get a little break. I was shocked at what panic it put me in. I just wanted a couple more days with her... o.k. maybe a whole year, but wow! Time flies. She was so excited to wear her school uniform, she looks so grown up! I am so proud to be her mom- really and truly. She is the sweetest little girl I know and I am so lucky to have her. I think she has taught me more than I've taught her these last 5 years


In Florida, Kindergarten is from 8:45-3:00!

That is the cutest little Uniform! The head band made it even better, what a cutie.

So so cute! I remember going through the same thing last year with my oldest Isaac. His kindergarten was 7:45-2:50. How insane! I would spend a lot of time volunteering in his classroom to be with him along with my little guy Lucas. I think having Isaac gone all day was harder on Lucas than it was on me.
I like the idea of uniforms.

I also love the uniform and the "flair" you added with the headband. How fun....it is crazy to have your kids in school. It is such a happy/sad time. (It says I am posting as Seth but this is Angie)

You are such a great mom, and you will be able to relax soon. We are here for you, but gosh those walks home from school to the car are killing me! Florida weather really stinks, I hate this humidity. It will be so nice once fall really gets here and the weather is nice. It's been fun walking with you.

What a cutie. Dallin just started 1st grade and I cried the whole way home. I thought it was harder than first grade...but our kindergarten was only three hours so the whole day thing is new to me...so I am feeling for ya!!! I just want to keep them forever. I took him out to lunch yesterday and I told Greg that it was the last time we got to have lunch together...he was like, um there is saturdays and Sundays and holidays....but those don't count right? I am going to miss the everyday thing!!!

She is such a doll and what a stylish mom she has...I love the hair!!!

She is so cute, Amy! I think ALL schools should require uniforms. The kids just look so dang cute! I can't even imagine what it will be like when Cecily starts school. Time does fly by so fast!

Tori said...

Oh my gosh, Amy, she is adorable!

She is so incredibly beautiful! She looks like a mini you!

You should dress the same as her and you two could go around on a Segway scooter together like Dr. Evil and Mini-me on Austin Powers.

Um, this is totally not funny unless you've seen the show.
