Addison's First Day of Kindergarten

Tuesday was the big day...Addi started Kindergarten at a brand new school...Heartland Elementary! She was really excited and her Mommy and Daddy were very proud of her.
And how lucky a little girl is she to have Mrs. Mitchell as her teacher! Gena has been a great friend of ours forever and her husband Doug is one of the associate ministers at our church (they were even out in the waiting room when Addi was born) so it definitely made the whole transition of starting to school much easier on all of us.
I had to be one of "those parents" and stick around for a couple minutes outside the door to take a picture or two...
Her first day was a success...she was not all that informative when she got home, but she did say that she had a good day, met some nice friends, didn't have time to eat all of her lunch (she's so pokey!), and the funniest thing was "nap time" when they had them lay their heads down on the table and use their beach towels either for a pillow or to cover up with...she just thought that was hilarious. It was an adjustment for all of us, but I think we all handled it just fine. The hardest part? Getting up so early!
