Kindergarten Baby

My baby girl started kindergarten today. Here she is getting ready to go in the morning.

Janessa and Andrew played on the kindy playground before the bell rang.

Janessa and her BFF. We were so lucky that they are in the same class!

Lined up and ready to go! Look how they are all looking at their teacher and paying attention.

Janessa has a great teacher, I've heard lots of good things about her. When she was talking to the kids before taking them into class, she told them that "Mommy and Daddy will be home alone without you. They will miss you and they'll have nothing to do while you're gone!" LOL She told the kids to wave and blow kisses, and tell their mommies and daddies that they'll be fine at home a without them for the day. So as the kids were waving and saying goodbye, Janessa burst from the line and ran over to me for one last hug. It totally melted my heart to have my baby girl come running to me one last time before walking through those big doors. So the teacher laughed and said, "Okay, one last hug for Mom and Dad" and all the kids ran to their parents. It was so sweet! I only got a little teary.... Yeah, right. ;)

Here she is when I picked her up. She bounded out the door and ran right to our car. She had a great first day!

Congrats to the big kindergartener, and congrats to you, Mommy, for surviving another first day of Kindergarten. :)

So glad she had a great first day. I remember when she was just a baby and Seth was calling her Baby Nessa. Time goes by way too fast.
