The first day of school photo made it! Whew. It's kind of like the first day itself, a little blurry, a little frazzled and definitely cute! Claire's problem with first grade? We really don't play much, we have real work to do. Dang. That's why kindergarten rocks little girl. But she has been working so hard on her reading, it will be amazing when it clicks and she has the confidence to read more than Dick and Jane. That's not a dig on the series. Everyone starts somewhere and she's learned a great base of words, it's just more fun to read something with a little more girl power in it. When she can pick the titles and read me a big girl story there's no stopping this child with her amazing imagination and her killer story telling ability. Her songs are her most wonderful talent. Every verse is funnier than the first and sung to her own quirky melody. Claire is a light that draws others to her and she is so excited about this big new school year. Watch out Mrs. Stasa, this year's going to rock with Claire flair!

Aly's biggest concern is "Mom we do not get snack." In my mind I am thinking OMG my poor little anorexic daughter. Should I write a note excusing my poor little under weight daughter in mid afternoon to go eat a snack? I than step back and say Wow you are being a little over protective and she will not die if she don't get a snack.
You know by the time they are in 3rd grade they are going to have there own rock band. The songs they create crack me right up.
First grade is killer! Go get em' Claire.
The jump from kindergarten to first grade is major. Here's to a great school year for our big girls!
