first day of school!

the girls had a great first day of school this year. this is the first year that kaitlyn and cora are in the same school building. kaitlyn started 3rd grade (craaaaazy!!!), and cora started the pre-k program there. claire also started her first day of full-time daycare. i have been so blessed to have been able to stay home with them as long as i have. now that i started nursing school - in she went! i had a hard time leaving her there, but she did great. i'm super pleased with all of their teachers and really think they will all have great years!

kaitlyn was so sweet walking her little sister to class. claire just thought she needed to wear her backpack into the building, even though she goes somewhere else. :)

cora loves her teacher, mrs. cline. she's always commenting on what she wears and what kind of jewelry she has on. 

kaitlyn wanted her picture in front of the huge sunflowers in the garden....

i am so glad that she got mrs. greene. i am not one that requests teachers (no offense to those that do...just not me!), but i secretly prayed that this is who she would get. kaitlyn and i were both super excited. 

claire went straight for the dolls. she has a fun teacher as well, and was excited to go - which made it so much easier for me! 

claire's teacher wasn't there the morning of her first day because she was taking her own kids to school, so i had to take this on the second day. 

i am so truly thankful for all of these teachers that take care of my babies during the day. i pray they all have a great year! i know it will go by so fast.
