First Day of Preschool...and almost Kindergarten

Here is a picture of #2 on her first day of 3 year old preschool. And a picture of #1 from her first day 3 years ago! I love to find pictures of my girls at the same milestone and compare their looks and faces....so much of their personalities shine through! #2 is having a great time at Grana's. She is one of the big kids now. Last year there were 3 5 year olds and 3 2 year olds. Now the 5 year olds are in kindergarten, so #2 has moved into the "big kid" position. Ms. Carol says that she is doing great and seems to obey and get along better without big sis around. Apparently big sis would try to help, which would just get #2 riled up, and then she'd start acting up. This year she is one of "the three little angels." We've also heard #2 refered to as "my sweet, quiet little one" by Ms. Carol. I think that #2 has Ms. Carol fooled!

Grandma & Grandpa sent a cookie boquet to #1 today! It was for good luck on her first day of school! The picture on top shows cookies decorated with a bottle of glue, "Have Fun" and a box of crayons. The cookies in the bottom picture had a pencil, her name & "ABC 123." She immediately ate the cookie with the crayons. She voluntarily shared her cookies with all of us. She gave me the bottle of glue, #2 the "ABC 123" and Ryan the pencil. She is saving the "Good Luck" and name one for later. Apparently "later" means 3 hours in her world...she had 1/2 of one of them after dinner tonight. We'll save the other half for tomorrow and the other one for Thursday! Thanks Dave & Tess!
