Ellie's First Day of Preschool

Today Ellie you started your first day of preschool at Robbinsdale Elementary.  Auntie Danielle (who works at the school) gave us the inside scoop on preschool through the school system, we put you on the wait list and in less two weeks you were placed in the 3-year old class! Your teacher is Ms. Lewis (you call her Ms. Sarah) and the teacher's aid is Ms. Mary.  You started about a week behind all the others, while we were waiting for a spot.  But you will catch on fast, I am sure of it!

You were so brave this morning, both mommy and daddy came with you drop you off on the first day.  We lined up outside and waited for the bell to ring.  A school bus drove by with kiddos and you started jumping up and down, screaming "A real live school bus, with real kids!" Just a small measure of your excitement :)

 I tried to explain the bell last night and you asked if it was like santa's bells (jingle bells)...hehehe.  But when the loud bell rang you got it! You stopped playing in the rocks and lined up behind all the other kiddos.  Ms. Mary and Ms. Sarah were there shortly to great you and you marched right out, never even looking back at mommy and daddy!  You are fearless in some regards and I love that about you.  You will do great things my little lady :)
