Unwilling Nurse

Laurie's class is learning about Community Helpers at school. Her teacher sent photos of all the kids in these fun get-ups. Every other kid is smiling and loving it. I don't think Laurie gets what all the hype is about.

Anna Fair's First Day

Anna Fair started Mother's Morning Out this week. I wanted to get a sweet picture before we left home, but she's more interested in the neighbor kids playing next door.






















Both our girls are notoriously independent. Every child in her room is crying, but Anna Fair sidled up to the toys and got down to business. The only way I know she is a little nervous, she sucks her thumb like life depends on it.

First Day

Today, Laurie started PK-3. She's been asking for weeks when she is going to school, but now that the day is here, she didn't want to go. Serious as ever. And very insistent that she take a picture for Mrs. Yelverton.















Ever pragmatic, when the time came, she was out the door in a flash.















She had a great first day! Despite telling me that she played with no friends and Mrs. Yelverton wouldn't let her play with the toys because she had to sit on the mat. Why do I feel like I am only getting part of the story?
