my first kindergartener

This was the official first day of Audrey's kindergarten. (Even tho it lasted only about 40 minutes, and we were there the whole time). The classroom was so cute and the teacher was so nice. Aug. 26th. A day that I have looked forward too but dreaded at the same time. Audrey is my first born. She is a ball of sunshine and energy. She is so intelligent and bright...She wants to be a rock star, she loves princesses and sparkly things. She is kind to other people and wants to be friends with EVERYONE she meets. She loves fashion and has been busy all summer making these fashion books...(shown below). She LOVES to draw and color and be creative.

I am one of the millions of mothers sending their first child off to kindergarten. Audrey was more than thrilled to be left at the door of education. I suppose that the inevitable must begin. She will be thrust into the cold dark world of disappointment, and hurt in order for her to grow and progress. That is good right? It is suppose to be.... so I suppose I need to let the desensitization of innocence begin at a place known as KINDERGARTEN!:)

Here she is in line waiting for the bell to ring and the day to begin. She has some friends in her class from church which makes me feel better. I am not going to deny that I did get teary-eyed watching her walk into the classroom and leave us behind.
