Kindergarten days

 Anwyn has two successful weeks of kindergarten under her belt. We leave to drive her to school bright and early at 7:20am, but she has no problem waking up to get ready. We spent most of the mornings for the last two weeks telling her "go back to bed, you don't need to be up this early!"
 She is enjoying herself, but it doesn't appear too challenging. She has made some good friends: "Claire is my best friend at school". Her favorite days are when they get to do art and music. She also enjoys lunchtime (which they have at 10am since school starts so early).
 After a few days of parking the van and walking her in to her class (with Lily and Zach in the stroller), she was ready for the pull-up and drop-off. That's when both Jared and I got teary eyes and lumps in our throat, watching her walk off to class all by herself.

Our sweet girl is growing up and off to conquer the world (or at least kindergarten)!

I did Adrie's first official pull up to the curb and let her go all by herself this morning. It was a little hard watching that small body with a big backpack walk all by herself to the line (it was only 30 feet away- but still hard!). I hope Anwyn starts to sleep in a little longer!

So cute! Sam did the exact thing and kept waking up at 5:30am the first week of school because he was so excited! Crazy kids!
