New shoes – CHECK…  Uniform pressed – CHECK… Lunch packed – CHECK…

Ten hours and counting!  The first day of school is almost upon us.  Tomorrow is the day my first little baby will be getting onto the bus and heading off to Kindergarten.  We’ve been waiting for this day for a long time, and now it’s finally here.  Summer vacation seemed to go out with a bang this year – literally!   And as hurricane Irene poured down on us this weekend, the excitement of Monday filled our home.  We’re ready to go!

And of course, I couldn’t help but take my little Kindergartener out this weekend (before the storm) to take one last picture of her before she heads off to school.  I’m so proud of her!
