Elizabeth's 1st day of Kindergarten

I can officially sit here and say that I am a mommy of a kindergartner. I am amazed that she is already (almost) 5. Sometimes I look at her and wonder where the time has grown. Around 6am I went into Elizabeth's room and snapped a few pictures of my little princess before the craziness began. When her alarm went off I went over to the bed and exclaimed "Today is a special day for Elizabeth Webb because..." and before she even opened her eyes she smiled and sang "she gets to go to Kindergarten.." Even though she was awake it took her a good 15 minutes to finally get out of bed. We did all the normal morning things and we left at 10 after 7. Of course traffic didn't corporate so we didn't get to the school until 7:50. By the time that we arrived to her classroom almost everyone else was there. She put her bag up and started to meet new friends. We stayed until after announcements and then we left. When Father Breane started the annoouncements he welcomed the kids home and then started with the school motto. He said "Do your....and all the kids yelled "BEST" and then father said "Do what's ... and the kids yelled "Right" It was great because you could almost feel the walls saying the words that have lead the school for so many years. Elizabeth did great she didn't cry or really even care that we were leaving. The only issue was that she had a mini breakdown because she wanted to color during the morning prayer and pledge of allegiance. Today was a half day so dismissal was at 11am. The pick up situation is a mess. I am not looking forward to repeating it 5 times a week. We arrived early so we had to wait outside and it was 102 out. When Elizabeth's teacher lead her out she had the biggest smile on her face. It made me really happy that we made the decision to send her to saint Edwards. I am going to end this post with the School's motto.

Do your BEST and Do what's right....
