School Days, School Days, Wonderful Golden Rule Days

How did this happen?  That this little girl...

Is now this little girl?

Kindergarten went swimmingly.  No problems.  No tears (yes, me included).  A little nerves and anticipation all around.

The bus ride is a highlight, and she buys a school lunch today for the first time, and has art and library.  Super excited this morning.

She's been really silly waiting for the bus (it picks up and drops off in our driveway). 

Which tells me that although so much has changed from that little baby, so much of her silliness and the reasons I love her stay the same.
