Morgan's First Day of 1st Grade!!!

I would have to say Morgan was really excited to go to school. It all started last night when she went in to brush her teeth and do her nightly bathroom routine before bed with out anyone telling her. She was done and in bed 20 min before her bedtime!

Since it stormed in the middle of the night, she ended up on our floor in our bedroom.
Josh had gotten up and taken his shower, he had forgotten socks so he came back in the room to get them and Morgan asked if it was time for her to get up yet. Josh told her no, go back to sleep. Then about 15 min later while I was up walking about the house, she asked again if I had forgotten to get her up. I told her no, she had some more time to sleep. Finally, I had just gotten her breakfast at the table and as about to go wake her up, and there she is standing in the doorway to the kitchen. She ate really well, and was on the ball there after. She remembered the routine from last school year and was ready about 20 min early!

While we were outside waiting on the bus, she was just SO giddy, jumpy, talkative. She just would not stop. Her excitement was uncontainable! That made it much easier on me. Neither one of us shed a tear this morning. She did get a new bracelet at breakfast, so I was sure to kiss it, just in case she needed a "mommy kiss" in the middle of the day!

She's HOME!!!

She had a great day! SO much fun. She loves her teacher Mr. Fudge. She was the calendar girl today. She played tag at recess, had pizza for lunch. She is making new friends and is ready to learn!!!

I am so excited for her!

We love our Morgan Grace!!!
