*FIRST DAY OF 5th / 1st GRADE*

The girls and I worked hard at getting everything organized and laid out the night before their first day. We had all their clothes laid our for the next two weeks, so we can be on top of things.
The girls seemed pretty excited about heading back to school, but I was a little sad. I enjoyed getting to sleep another 45 minutes in the morning. Not to mention the summer flew by quickly. Luckily, their excitement helped them jump out of bed in the morning and get ready quickly.
When we got to school, I ran Maren in first and then dropped Alexa off. Alexa is excited that she got one of her friends mom this year, so she was happy to get started for the year. She instantly went to her desk and started to unpack her supplies.
Alexa really didn't need any of my help, so I ran back down to MAREN'S classroom. She had already unpacked her supplies from her backpack and was sitting there, so I helped her get everything organized. She did seem a little sad. Even more quite than she usually is, but she seemed ok and was at the point where she wanted me to leave.
Hopefully their day goes perfect!
