First day of Pre-K!
I can't believe today arrived so quickly! My emotions have been all over the place today as I have cried on and off. And funny thing is, I am not sure why. I would have assumed that this would have been easier. I mean, it is not even considered an official GRADE yet. But she is gone from 9-3 two days a week and home schooled on one. And today the house felt extra quiet.
Then I took a gazillion photos outside of her and I kept getting a fake smile. You all would never know but I am sure so many of you can relate. YOU KNOW WHEN YOUR CHILDREN ARE JUST BARING THEIR TEETH...humoring us old folks.
This one is real.
This one is NOT.
Nope. Not this one either.She looks a bit like a deer in headlights here.
But she is still so cute my heart can't take it.
We got to school and Cati found her seat with her name on it. And looky there...bored already even before it begins. She's like, "OK Peeps. When's this party gettin' started?"
Actually, I truly think she was nervous.
Sister hugs.
Ella is NOT happy to be away from her sister.
All day she has been reminding us, "Cati's at goool."
The best family pic we could get...but I love it. What an amazing memory to look back on.
Libbie, did ya see the lunch box?
WE GOT OUR GIRLS THE SAME ONE!!!!!
Libbie and I had a contest to see who would be first to post a first day of school pic.
She won.
Dang it. But it was fun!
Cati is so adorable! Hope she has a great day!

Couldn't wait to see the "first day" pics! I was thinking about you ALL day today!!! I'll call you sometime - maybe tomorrow. Wanna hear more about how she did! She is so beautiful - what a big girl!!
ReplyDeleteI just came back here to see Cati again ! She is just way too cute & right away when I saw her I couldn't help but pray for her today. I think this will be a loooong week for the girls & they will be wiped out! Annie was!
