Requisite Awkward First Day of "School" Photo

For Ella it's the first day of her last year of preschool. We watched as the new kindergarten class walked to Mann School last week. Backpacks and nervous anticipation...made me thankful for the familiarity of Concordia for the next twelve months.  Viv graduates to a new classroom and it is here where she will retire her diaper.  Goddess of Bladder and Bowel control, please keep us in your prayers.  Ella looks forward to a leadership role in her Montesorri based classroom...although that "skill" has been honed for years.  We returned this morning marking this fresh start with armfuls of supplies; boxes of Kleenex and Bandaids, markers and toothpaste.  Ella was able to reign in her sniffles as I started out the classroom door.  Viv paused a moment too before reclaiming the "dress-up corner" from her peers.  Not a tear was shed, at least not by the kids...I saved mine for the car.
