BIG DAY!

Caroline's first day of Kindergarten is TODAY! I can not believe my baby is old enough for school. The time with her at home with me has flown by so fast. I am so proud of the little lady she is becoming and can't wait to hear how her first day went. Caroline with Eli and Elizabeth before going off to school.

It was a pretty crazy morning at school today. We had to stand in a long line in order to get a sticker to take Caroline to her class. As we stood in line they told us we needed our license but my friend said since Greg had his I would not need mine... that was not correct, so after we stood in line a long time and finally made it to the office I had to go back outside to get my license from my car... yuck. I did get to by pass all the other people in line though after I got my license. Below is a picture of Caroline as we stood in line.
Finally we made it out of the office and are on the way to Caroline's class room.
Caroline is giving her teacher Mrs. Davis a special gift for their first day together. Notice the look on Caroline's face has changed. She now has her serious not sure what I think about this change look.
Mrs. Davis is telling Caroline where she needs to sit.
Mrs. Davis opened Caroline's gift in front of the whole class and showed them all what she brought. Caroline still has her serious look on her face. I hope it is gone when I see her this afternoon;)
I will hopefully have a picture of Caroline getting off the bus this afternoon that I will probably put on the blog later today. Over all I think it was a good morning. I did not cry at all which was probably because it was so crazy this morning. Caroline shared this morning how nervous she was to go to school today, we prayed for her in the car before getting out and will continue to pray all day that she has a great experience.

You're doing the bus thing? Let me know how that goes. Brian absolutely refused to let Lily ride the bus last year. I'm carpooling this year, but I'm just wondering if Caroline likes it

I can't believe she is in school already! Time flies. I have also prayed that she has a wonderful experience! Looking forward to hearing how it all went. It was super to see that you all went with her this first morning.
