Emma's first day of 1st grade

Emma started 1st grade today. She was really excited and a bit nervous and the same time. I thinks she might have been more excited about wearing her new school clothes! She looked adorable and she said she had a really good day. She is getting way to big way to fast. Here are some pictures of earlier today.

Here's Emma waving at us as she walking into school





This is what she brought home today - so so cute. Its her hand and then inside (you can't read it very well in the picture) it says "Whenever you feel lonely and need a little love from me, just press your hand to your cheek and think (and she wrote in to mom from Emma) loves me. And this very kiss will jump to your face and fill you with toasty warm thoughts." It had a candy kiss with it. So cute, they really know how to pull at your heart!

  2. I've been told that it doesn't get any easier dropping them off that first day. I'm glad she had a great time.

    Emma looks so tall! She's such a cute girl. You're right - time goes too fast!

  3. It's the kissing hand book! We've got that book (the words from the inside of the hand). I love that book -- and how cute to make it a handout for the parents!

  4. your blog looks so good. Emma looks good on her first day. I think it does get easier as they get older. They just say see ya later mom and there off. Brylee got that book also and it is way cute!

  5. Wow, how cute is she??? It is so hard to believe that Emma is in the first grade. It seems like only yesterday she was downstairs, screaming and refusing to eat on her first night home. It makes me remember you climbing up on the bus for your first day of first grade. Grandchildren grow up even faster than children. She's adorable just like her momma.

  9. such familiar shots of that first day of school. I got butterflies just looking at those pictures. I is hard to watch them grow up, huh? The worst part of it is that they are o.k. and we are not. I need them to need me too. Emma looks sooo dang cute!!! She is so grown up and I just can't believe that she is in 1st grade! What a sweetheart.
