The girls started school yesterday and it was a little traumatic.....and not for the child I would have expected it from. Natalie was SO excited to start school, she woke up before the alarm clock went off and was fully dressed and ready to go. All the kids were wearing shirts that the school gave them for the 1st day.
We walked across the street to her new school and met up with a couple of neighbor kids.
We then found her teacher with the line of students. Just then, Natalie's eye's filled up with tears and she broke down! I think that this was because she realized that she didn't know anyone in her class. As the bell rang and her class started to go inside, she held on tight to my arm and leg and the teacher had to peal her off of me! It was terrible! Her teacher quickly emailed me to let me know that as soon as they went in the building she was doing much better. As you can tell by the look on her face, she was trying hard to be happy!
Megan was SO ready to go for her 1st day of kindergarten.
She goes in the afternoon so I told her she would go after lunch. She told me all morning that she was hungry thinking that this would speed up the process and she could go to school earlier. : ) The time had finally come! We started to walk out the door and Megan was already headed down the street! I had her stop for a quick picture and then she was off!!!
I tried to take a picture of Megan as she entered the school, but she would not turn around for anything! She was GONE! : )
The end of the day finally came and I went to pick them up. I found 2 smiling girls! Thank God!!! They both were talking a mile a minute about their amazing days! Our prayers have been answered and they enjoyed school! YAY!
The story will continue on how long it lasts that they enjoy their school days! ; )
