First day of kindergarten!

Today Sam started kindergarten...what a great day for her! She has been talking about it for weeks and could not wait to go back to school. She goes to such a wonderful school, I can't wait to have Anaïs go to that school!!
She had a brand new backpack and lunch bag which she was very excited about. She picked a Barbie backpack and a Hannah Montana lunch bag.
This year, class starts at 8:00. This is a big change for us because she used to start at 8:30...it's crazy how much of a difference 30 min can make! I was so scared of being late that we got there super early! LOL

At this point, she was starting to seriously get sick of me taking pictures. On this picture she was telling me "come on!! let's go to my classroom mom!!".
She could not get there fast enough!
It's nice because there are a couple of her friends from last year which makes the transition so much smoother!
She did a really good job today, we are so proud of our big girl!!

Great picture of your kindergartner! I especially love the one of her telling you to come on. I'm so glad that she had a great first day!

That's great that Sam is so eager for kindergarten. Audrey is starting kindergarten too and can't wait to go. We don't have to be there till 8:50 in the morning. Happy because I don't have to wake up too early.

Sam is too cute! I like the picture of her telling you to come on! :) That's great that she loves kindergarten so much and has friends in her class from last year!

Yay for back to school! Looks like Sam had a great first day back! Yes, 30 minutes is a big difference! Akela's class is starting at 8:15 this year and Zoe doesn't get onto the bus until 8:40...strange since Zoe is in grade school and Akela is in Pre-K, oh well! Love the pictures! So glad to hear that she has some friends in her class from last year, that helps a lot!
