In a While

This morning was a little different around our house! We got up 1/2 an hour earlier, played a little less and were rushed a little more! (This is going to take some practice!) Today is Sophia's first day at Daycare, known to her as School-with-lots-of-new-friends! She picked out her turtle shirt to wear on her first day and smiled big for the camera as she played this morning before we headed off.


I love the daycare. It is cute and bright and colorful and energetic and full of happy, smiling kids - which I'm taking as a good sign. Yes, we were the only two-parent drop off this morning; everyone else just pushed their kids through the door, smiled, waved and were off to work. We lingered. Took pictures. Watched her play. Oh, did I mention she took off immediately, running to play with her teacher Miriam and give the kids hugs? Not even a glance backward.




When it was time for us to go, we blew her a kiss and said, "Bye Soph! We'll be back in a while! Have fun!" And she responded, "In a while!"

So we've got an early start to our work day but will most likely be the first parents there at 2pm waiting to pick her up, and yes, we will most likely BOTH go to pick her up. Come on . . . it's the first day!
