Brielle's First Day of School!

We have a Kindergartener now!! Yesterday was Brielle's first day of Kindergarten, and she is having an absolute blast! We cannot believe we have a kid in school now -- she's getting so big... So far she is loving it, and we love hearing about it when she gets home -- sure brings back elementary school memories... Her favorite part of school thus far is lunch! :) She loves getting to pick her food from the cafeteria -- especially the milk because they have the option of strawberry and chocolate every day! :) She also loves showing us the fun worksheets and papers she brings home that she worked on at school that day -- she is very excited that she gets to use scissors and glue sticks and markers! It is just so much fun getting to hear all about the things she is learning and how excited she is about it all. Definitely a new phase of life for us around here, having someone to take to school every day, being on a good & constant schedule here at home now, and getting to be involved with all this fun elementary school stuff. Samuel and Colette are loving it too because they get to play on the Kindergarten playground every day when we drop her off and pick her up! Anyway, definitely a fun event and milestone in our family right now!!
August 24, 2009: Brielle ready to leave for her first day of school! Very excited...

August 25: I remembered to bring the camera today to get a picture of her outside the schoolyard. It's a nice little set-up here at the Kindergarten playground.

And this is outside the door to her classroom, which opens right to the playground. We really like her teachers too -- Mrs. E. & Mrs. Black. It's all been a really fun little experience so far! :)
