Her daddy is one proud papa.
Things were a little hectic getting started, but Addie kept her cool as she put her lunch in it's place and then put her backpack into her cubby. She was so excited to find her desk.
She was a champ for sure. Hopefully tomorrow is as good. She was all smiles and very excited to be at school. I thought her eyes might just pop out of her head.
Little miss confident...here she is explaining how things work to me. She melted my heart as we were leaving. I gave her a hug and she just said, "If I want to make a new friend I just ask them their name and tell them mine, right?" Oh, sweet girl. There was an Addyson at her table so she was excited to see if her nickname was Addie as well.
Today was probably one of Addie's earliest mornings ever, so I'm very interested to see how she feels at the end of the day. I thought I was fine until I went into her room to make her bed for her and then I was sad. Jack following me around like a lost puppy dog didn't help. They have played so well together this summer and he will definitely miss his sister.
I have pictures from her 5th birthday, but they are trapped on my other camera while I try to find the cord. Other than that, I have no real excuse for my lack of blogging than too many other things to do. I've just finished the first trimester with baby #3 so hopefully some new life will hit me and I'll be able to stay on top of things...for a while!
In the meantime, I'm so grateful for my Adeline. She is eager to learn and most of the time I feel guilty for not spending more time with her teaching her things. I think she would sit and learn something new with me for as long as I would give her the time. I am going to miss her every day but I look forward to the time we'll get together when she gets home. Homework will simply force me to sit down more and work with her, which I look forward to.
