First Day of School!

Well it finally happened, our baby started school. It is hard to believe she is old enough to go but she is. Bella is in Voluntary Pre-K (VPK) at a local Baptist School. She is in a class with about 20 kids, two of which are in her Primary class at church.

So the first day of school comes and goes with no problems. Our shy Bella went right into class with no crying or fussing. Normally she cries and fusses when she goes into her Primary class on Sunday's. So it started good.

Later that evening I asked Bella how school was and she went through all the activities she did: playing, coloring, reading, etc. Later that night (I was still excited)so I asked her more about school, trying to get some more details.

So there we were, just the two of us and she is telling me of her day, and she turns to me and puts on those huge puppy eyes. She said she was on the playground and she wanted one of the other children to see-saw with her, but she wouldn't. Her bottom lip quivered and she turned up the puppy eyes and just melted my heart. I then had the fun of trying to explain to her about playing and not taking it personally, making friends, etc.

Quite a first day! Second was more of the same, I will know tonight about the third. Hopefully Peg will be posting some pics soon!
