Sydney started her first day at St. Gabriels. (I forgot to put on her tie). She looks so grown up and sweet! I could die. I didn't cry or get sad like a lot of other mommies talk about. But it was definitely exciting and a big moment. She was ready about 20 minutes early and was banging Andy's office door down that whole time begging him to pleeeeeeeeeeease hurry and take her to school. She couldn't wait.
This was their little pre-pre-K pep talk about making friends.
The mandatory parent-kid photos!
She has been excited and her first two days were good. Though on her 2nd day she was sent to the nurse's office twice over silly things she really didn't need to go to the nurse for- I think she just made a big deal and insisted. She's had a lot of changes here with leaving her friends at Primrose and entering a new (much bigger) school (with uniforms, more teachers and rules), plus Andy has been out of town so much more and I think that has effected her a little in that he's been absent while the changes have started to go into effect. It seems so subtle, and not a big deal, but Sydney is highly intelligent and sensitive so she picks up on the slightest thing. So day 3 was very emotional. Let's just say there were a lot more monsters in her bedroom that night.

i really love the office talk pic.
ReplyDeleteSo does she have homework?
Can she order me some empanadas yet? lol.

Congrats, what a big step. I love the photos. Addie has a hard time after being gone from Dad for a long time too. Everything that normally is fine produces more tears and sensitivity. Girls need their Dads! Can't wait to hear how she does! I'm sure awesome.
