Here she sits, on her first day of Kindergarten, totally calm, filled with hope, joy and anticipation. Bella said to me last night that she was nervous about her first day, she was concerned that maybe she wouldn't make any friends. I assured her that wouldn't be the case. If you know Bella, she will take a stranger by the hand and make friends with them. She has a knack for it, she's a natural. APPLE doesn't fall far from the tree, I hear.
Here we sit, about to engage in our very first Elementary school ceremony, raising the flag, singing the American Anthem, Pledging the Allegiance, taking our oath, honoring the Texas flag and hearing the first ever morning announcements for the school year. It was a special 30 minutes of our day. It was our version of the Olympics opening ceremony. We're official....
A sweet moment of us watching our little Bella blossom. Bella sits in her spot, in her classroom, finding her place and making her own way in this new chapter of her life.
It is a very exciting time for all of us.....
We raised our flag, with our hands on our hearts, proud to be Americans.....and Texans. Yep, Texas IS PROUD, therefore, we take our oath of pride!
Finally, she blew us a kiss as she was taking her first walk to her classroom as an official student...ready to begin her day, her very first day of Kindergarten.
Bella,
We are SO PROUD of you. I cannot wait to watch your transformation, as you spread your wings and soar. You are going to do wonderfully.
I love you,
Mom
OH, what a big girl. That first day outfit ROCKS! Hhhhmmm, I wonder who the designer is? Have a fun year sweet girl!
ReplyDeleteI was going to ask who her designer was, too! ;-) That is a great outfit.
ReplyDeleteAnd what a fun, exciting day! I can't wait to hear how the rest of it went. I'm going to read/show this to Em to get her all pumped for her first day, too.
