1st Day of Kindergarten

This is Ella standing in front of her school on the first day. The first day for Kindergarten was orientation, where I went with her for an hour and stayed to talk to the teacher about the year, while the kids went with the T/A to play educational games.

So, this is the 2nd day, but the first official day by herself to Kindergarten.   In the car she was as excited as could be!

Walking into the school by herself... this is where I started to lose it.

Even though we live 0.2 miles from the school, Ella insisted on riding the bus. So, she's the 2nd stop it makes and gets home 8 minutes after school gets out.


She LOVES the bus, and feels like a big kid.

Here's her take home folder and the picture she drew on the first day. I STILL cannot believe she is old enough to be in school.
