Today was Lanie's first day at R. Elementary. She doesn't turn 5 until September so she misses the cut off for kindergarten. But R. Elem is a school for home schooled kids where they go 1-2 days per week to get all the extra curricular stuff like computers, music, P.E., as well as some reading and math. Their cut off isn't until December, so Lanie was able to start that. One of her friends, Becca, is in her class. Becca's Mom does homeschool her kids and raves about R. Elem, so we thought we'd give it a try. Lanie was so excited. Next year she will do kindergarten again through our elementary school. No way I could homeschool my kids- I'm sure I would totally mess them up! :)
I feel dumb because I know she will still be home with me most days, but it was still so hard to leave her there! She of course had no problem, she was so excited to be with her friend and her new teacher, and especially to have her own lunch box full of wonderful food! We spent a lot of time discussing and deciding what would go in that lunch box.
I can't wait until 3:30!

Cute pictures. I'm glad your blogging now. I hope your having fun at Powell. I'll have to tell you about MY weekend. I wish I was there!
It was a nice surprise to see your comment on my blog. I was hoping you had yours all fired up. Woot woot! I would still really love to double so pencil me in next time you are in town. My mom used to take my picture on the first day of school. Sometimes she would make me pose on the step of the bus. It was embarrassing at the time but I'm glad I have those pictures now. I love Lanie's first day of school shots. She looks ready for anything. She's got her backpack and she looks adorable. I'm glad we can keep in touch this way:)
Wow, can't believe that the kids are so grown-up. Such a cute little family. Hey, and what's this about Kathy's family moving to Washington D. C.? Is anyone still left in Abq.?
Hi Adrienne! I found you on Robin's blog. I can't believe you have an almost 5 year old. What an adorable little family you guys have!
Molly :)
Wow!! I can't believe you're a mom of a girl who's about to go to Kindergarten (even if it is really a partial kindergarten). Still cool! I love the picture of you kneeling down and huggin Lanie. =)
They grow so fast! I can't believe it!
Hey- Google Cedar City news- a plane crash killed 10 people one including Marci Cox- a roommate we had for a while. So sad. It just is so sad. I also went to Doc. Ellsworth's office for treatment. --Alysa
Yeah! I found your blog. I guess I could have just called you. I need to get you ours. I think I would be just as nervous leaving my kids at school. Scary!!!
