"I'm A Number Now!"

,but not only are you a number,
you're #1!!!

Sydney started first grade with great
anticipation!
She could barely sleep the night before.
I even offered up my bed to help her relax
without Emma around.
It helped and she quickly fell asleep.
But awoke up with a jolt and a big smile
when I told her it was time to get dressed!

I suggested many glorious warm breakfasts,
but she choose a toaster strudel & chocolate milk.

Then she practiced the piano.

Which I have to admit....
melted my heart!

Then it was out the door with Dad,
to drop her off.

Last year Larry mentioned not being able to take
her to school anymore.
But I think deep, deep down he likes
being the last one to see her.

Here's to another good year!
And remember Syd,
you're always #1 to me!

I was scrolling through the pictures, thinking she looks all grown-up, until I got to the one with the backpack. That huge thing makes her look tiny!
