563. Smiley adorable Lou Lou. While Ava, Kate and I were in D.C....Olivia spent some quality time with Doug at home. The went to the "beach", a movie, out to eat - and she loved having daddy all to herself!
Ava's First Day of Kindergarten!
Ava woke up and looked at me with her big brown eyes and asked..."is today the day I get to ride the bus to school?" She beamed when I said yes. Her countdown finally complete! Good nights sleep. Lunch made. Bag packed. Favorite dress from Grammy on. Favorite shoes from Grandma - check. Breakfast eaten. Hair brushed. Eager kindergartner - check. Hugs for sisters. And for Mom, Dad & Grandma too. Ready to take on her first day of kindergarten. I have never seen a little girl more eager to hurry down to the bus stop and determined to climb bus steps. I barely got that hug! I have always envisioned her first day of school to be harmonious - taking our time eating breakfast together, strolling leisurely down to the bus stop - lots of room for photo ops. Harmonious? 3 under the age of 6...it was more of a pleasant frenzy...and went by faster than I would have liked! I am not going to pretend and say I wasn't a wee bit sad...I think the fast morning was a bit
