Our sweet Noelle on her first day of Pre-K!  She was so excited to head off to school.  I told her I was going to miss her too much and she said, “But Mom, I have to go learn.”

We have to pack a snack, lunch, nap mat/blanket/toy, backpack with change of clothes, and folder with assignments.  I feel like I’m doing a major check-list before school each day!

Noelle is a *drumroll* squirrel this year!  She was so disappointed when we opened up her back to school letter announcing her class mascot but quickly changed her mind when we collected acorns on our family walk that night.  In the second picture I asked, “Who’s a squirrel?”  She raised her hand and said, “I AM!”  🙂

WE LOVE OUR NEW SCHOOL!
