And she’s off!  We had a successful departure this morning as my little girl took her first ride on the school bus, on her way to her first day of Kindergarten.  How exciting to see that yellow bus coming over the hill, lights flashing, and the little heads inside bouncing up and down.  The joy of the bus!  Such pride, excitement, and even some bittersweet sadness overcame me as I watched this little munchkin climb up those big steps and take her seat in the front of the bus.  My littlest one waved ferociously, as her big sister’s beaming smile looked out from the window as she waved back.  I think I’m getting teary eyed just typing this!  LOL!

Happy First Day of Kindergarten, My Sweet Catie!  I love you more than you’ll ever know, and hope you are having a wonderful first day at school!
