Today was the day that Olivia has been waiting looking forward to since she was two years old. She has been talking about going to kindergarten for as long as I can remember. I'm not sure how it all started, but she had it in her mind and this was her goal. Today it happened and boy was she excited:)
She woke up and was full of sunshine. She had picked out her dress, from a stack of five choices, and picked out "double braided piggy tails" and was ready to go. There was no nervousness, except for maybe two minutes in the car when she overheard Jeff and I discussing if we were going to be late (which we weren't).
Jeff got up and made her a special over the top breakfast of french toast sticks, bacon, and hash browns.
It was so great that Jeff got to tack on an extra day of vacation (this weekend we had lindsey and peter's wedding) and come with us for her first day of school! He was the "papa"ratzi you can thank for all of the pictures:)
We went to school and all of the students lined up behind their teachers and waited for everyone to arrive. Once the entire class was present, then she led them into the building. This year we were not allowed to go in, just wave goodbye. Thankfully she had her friend Stephanie to cushion her transition and she did it like a pro. No tears, just joy and excitement.
Here's to a whole new world Olivia!!!
