Today was the big first day of Grade 1 and Grade 3! I can't believe the two oldest girls are now in school full time!!!! They have been so excited and looking forward to this day. So far they love their teachers and everything. They were happy to see old friends.
Lily was so excited to get a desk, instead of just tables they used in Kindergarten. She also LOVED her agenda book she gets to bring home everyday "just like Izzy." She loved her outfit she is wearing in the above picture, too. She picked it out herself when we went shopping. She said she loves PEACE signs. She did look really cute.
Izzy told me last night, "Clothes are cool when they don't match." I thought that was funny. She did choose to wear matching clothes though. She is really growing up. She doesn't like it when I say, "that shirt is cute," or "that is a cute top," or anything CUTE. She thinks that word belongs to babies I guess. I explained that it is another way of saying nice, or cool. She is happy with her teacher, who is new this year. I could tell she was a little nervous, but she was so brave and grown up and happy to be back at school. She said her class this year will study Peru, and she is so happy because that is where Ben served his mission.
