She was ready and eager to take off to school for her first day of class. But she’s so full of spunk today, I’m not sure that bodes well for her or not. Guess we’ll find out when we pick her up from Grandma’s house this afternoon. There was so much going on in the classroom when we got there, I am very interested to know how the first day goes. And I did very well myself, didn’t shed a tear, though I know today is the beginning of her peer group becoming increasingly influential in her life. I don’t want her to live a sheltered life, and I want her to do well in groups and learn how to be part of a team, but I don’t want the process to change her too much. Oh, well, I guess this is one of only many things to come that will pretty much be completely out of my hands.
You are so right. She will have lots of other influences in her life where you will have no control. It’s hard, but you are still the biggest influence right now. You’ll enjoy seeing her grow up. Every stage is so fun. I’m now enjoying my stage as a grandparent. It’s great!
She looks so cute. Shell love all her new friends.
I can’t believe how much she has grown! She’s beautiful, and full of it today 🙂
Unbelievable how full of joi de vivre she apprsrd…not to mention how stylish and beautiful.
Oh, you said it – she looks like she’s full of sass! Good for her – can’t believe she’s only 3 – she appears much older.
So glad she was all in form for her first day! Pretty soon she will tell you how to do things because “My teacher does it this way!!!” Lots of fun times ahead for her and you both.
Blessings to you all.
