Today Ella started first grade! I'm not sure how this happened. It really feels like summer just started but somehow our summer is officially over. At least Ella's is over. Bennett starts school next Friday. You'd think I'd be pushing them out the door but this summer flew by and these last two weeks at home I really enjoyed. I was actually a little sad to have summer come to an end. I could have had one more week at home with the kids. Ella had a great first day!! She picked out a cute new outfit and asked if it was the proper "three finger" width tank. I told her it was as long as it's her fingers, not mine. She was so excited to wear her glitter Tom's since Monday is a non-PE day. She has a few friends in her class. Her teacher is new to Norton this year but we got a good vibe from her last week and we even saw her out on a "date" Friday night but I told Ella to let her have quality time with her husband. :) Ella loved her first day of school. In fact, she was "Star Student" in her class! Wow, way to start the year and set the precedent for yourself, tiger! We'll be making sure that is how she behaves every day. Our little star will be off to soccer practice tomorrow and jazz on Wednesday while mommy registers her for softball this week. Her buddy, Sutton (below), is on her soccer team and they will hopefully be on the same softball team. This will be a busy year for us but life is an adventure and we live it to the fullest! Here's to a great year!!
