Her first day!

Audrey started Kindergarten on Wednesday and loved it! She is a pro at the playground and finding her way around school. She is exhausted after the long days at school too. Kindergarten is hard stuff. This is the first year the K class is staying until 3 (Miles stayed until 2), so it's an adjustment all around. But I have to say, it is so nice to stop in and say hi at lunch time, and to see her when she comes to the library. We're going to have a great year!

Our first day

Today was the first day at Sacred Heart for two of the three in our family. Miles started 2nd grade and I started as the librarian (+ a little tech) teacher.  Audrey starts Kindergarten on Wednesday so we'll have another round of photos then.

This is in front of the school. Kind of foggy today.

Here he was on his first day of K two years ago....

First day of 2nd grade
