First Day of School

Today was Gracie's first day of pre-school. She has been looking forward to this for month's!
All the way there she was singing 'Sweet Caroline' (her favorite song right now) at the top of her lungs. It takes 6 Sweet Caroline's to get to school.
She is so lucky to have her aunt as her teacher. She didn't even say bye to me, she just ran in to see who was there. That is huge for anybody who knew Gracie 2 years ago she would just cry if you tried to talk to her. When we went to the orientation last week she tried to get me to leave and kept telling me she would be fine.
When I asked her what she did at school this was her reply:
  • i hopped
  • do the wheels on the bus
  • i made a crocodile, ohhh i forgot it at la la's house, can we go get it? (it was really an alligator and it was in her backpack)
  • i played
  • i didn't play outside cause it raining

A little side note about Robyn: She was somehow named lala by Garrett and ever other niece and nephew since then have called her that. I told Gracie when she was at school to call lala Mrs. Robyn. When I picked her up Robyn told me she called her Mrs. Robyn, lala and just Robyn. I'm sure it's not easy for a 3 year old to keep all those names straight!

I love the song Sweet Caroline too – it’s a multigenerational favorite. :) Happy first day of school to Miss Gracie.
