1st Grade

First day outfit, I took her back to school shopping and let her pick what she wanted, she did a good job.

Walking to the bus stop with Harrison carrying boppy and Valerie still brushing her teeth

Getting on the bus, only one other girl at her stop and about 10 boys, but those boys did help her get off at the right stop.

In line for the first day of school

Lydia's take on the first day of school: It was okay.

The bus: It was great!, but a little lonely because she didn't have anyone to sit by.

The playground: Was a little too big for her because it had monkey bars that she couldn't do.

Lunch: Too short, she didn't get to finish all of her lunch (my theory on this one is that she was busy talking instead of eating)

She likes her teacher, Mrs. Bartlett, and sits by two new boys that she doesn't know their names. She had music class the first day of school and liked it, today she has P.E. so we will see how she likes that, later in the week she has art class that she is so excited for. She loves to draw, color, and paint. She tells me she wants to be an artist when she grows up.

Later in the day she asked me how long she was gone and when I told her about 7 hours she said, "and I didn't even fall asleep".

Today when I dropped her off at the bus stop there were a couple more girls, so hopefully she will make friends with them and have someone to sit by.
