First Day Of First Grade

This is the best backpack picture I got. Not sure why she wouldn't smile well with it on. It was kind of loaded down with the required supplies and lunch box. I'm not sure she's used to that.

We managed to get up, get dressed, eat breakfast, and brush hair and teeth without a problem this morning. I'm hopeful that it will be the norm but I have a feeling it has a lot to do with it being the first day and that she got a new dress to wear. Her teacher, Mrs. Henning, seems really nice. It took Emily a while to learn it only because with my cold I couldn't say it right. It took Nana saying it for Emily to understand it correctly. I'm excited to see what this year will bring to Emily.

As a side note, I was working with Ally on her ABC flashcards this morning and we got to the letter B and for some reason she couldn't remember it. Rylee walks over, looks at the cards and says "B". She then did the same thing when Ally struggled with D for some reason. I just pulled the flashcards out to work with Ally for the first time so I have no idea how Rylee knew what B and D were.
