Em's First Day of School Pictures

****Update Below*****

Well, we finally made it. Emily was off to her first day of kindergarten. She was actually not as excited as I thought she would be. She told me at breakfast this morning..."Mommy, I hope Mia is going to be in my class." I had told her maybe one or two of her friends from kindergarten would be in her class as she was worried she wouldn't know anyones names. When we got to school this morning...who was walking up the ramp to her class? Mia! Emily was soooo excited. They played together all last year. Aidon is also in her class and he, too, was in preschool with her. We found her place at the tables and put her name tag on, snapped a few pictures and off we went. Mike told me he felt a little like he was leaving her at Daycare, which we've been blessed never to have to do. So it was a little strange. She has a long day ahead of her. She goes to school from 8:15-2:05. But I think she is ready.

I'll add on to this later today when she gets home from school and we hear about her day. I'm sure she'll have a lot of good stories if I know Emily!

Update: So much for school until 2:05...Emily's teachers name is Ms. Maeder...and we now know the school nurse's name..Mrs. Wood. Emily threw up 2x at school. Emily has a tiny stomach bug it seems, although she already seems better. She threw up a teeny tiny bit this morning but I figured it was just a fluke. I guess not! Daddy had to go and pick her up at 10:30, she made it just over 2 hours. Happy first day of school! So, I guess we'll give it a try tomorrow...hopefully!
