Turns out I can be more emotional than I thought. I've never been much of a crier. But Annie started school this morning. I cried before she woke up, then managed to keep it together until the second I walked out of her classroom, and I've pretty much been a wreck since then. I think people driving down 1st N thought someone had died as I pushed the stroller home bawling. She's in first grade, and it's just such a huge change for her to be gone all day! It's about more than I can handle. Oh jeez, I'm crying again just writing about it.
On the other hand, Annie was totally fine. They even did a last second teacher switch on her, and she rolled with it (a lot better than me actually). She will absolutely love it. If I wasn't 100% sure of that, I couldn't do it.

Annie looks so ready and sooooo cute. You will all survive. Just remember that it will be the same when Max starts 1st grade, and Mae, and , and , and ...
It is a big change for the whole family.
Love you & yours!

Wow! First grade already!? I thought she and cecily were the same age. How exciting for her!
What a little cutie! I can't believe she is so big already - ok, sorry, I know that's not what you want to hear... :)

These pictuers make me feel happy. The cosmos behind her and she looks so much like you did when I met you :-)Good luck! I dread the day Jax goes to school all day, and he's a monster! He's not really, I'm just kidding! But seriously, he's a monster.
She's a champ! I can't even imagine the cases of Kleenex and chunky monkey icecream that I'll have to stock up on to get through the first day of school. It's a big one.
