first day of school!

And thus it begins...the very first day of countless school days ahead for the the next generation of Smiddleton Middlewartzes. Elliott has been looking forward to preschool all summer now. And when I finally dropped her off today, leaving her alone in a sea of new faces, the little stinker was off and didn't give her mamma a second glance!

Off to preschool!

Like my backpack?

When Zoey and I showed up a few hours later to take her home, she was not particularly thrilled to leave (let's just say I had to pry a few toys out of her hands and drag her away.) Her sweet teacher made sure to give me Ellie's craft (a raccoon made of hearts)  and a little "worksheet" that they did - so cute!

I'm so glad that Elliott had fun and looks forward to going back tomorrow. Little does she know how many years of this school thing she has in store for her; let's just hope she keeps up the enthusiasm throughout high school and college!
