First Day of School!

Yay, the girls finally started school today! I've needed my sanity, schedule, and quiet time back and it's definitely something I've been looking forward to. I hope I'm not considered a bad mom for not crying while dropping off my 1st grader. It was sad to see them stay at school all day, but we're all a little happier now that we're getting a little needed space. :) Ellie was quiet all the way home...I couldn't get her to talk. While eating her breakfast she asked "Where's the girls?" I said "Where did we just take them?" She said "School". She was already missing the company -- even though it's not always good company. Lately she's learned how to role play. She'll say "You're Troy and I'm Gabiealla" (High School Musical). She'll then continue to talk as if we are those characters and then randomly switch after a minute - making me Gabriella and her Troy. Anyway, so while I'm cleaning the kitchen she proceeds to say "You're Caitlin and I'm Ashlan"...and we continue to talk about what we are doing. It was quite funny. That was when I knew she was really missing the girls. We have two of the best teachers in the school (little perk for being PTA pres.) and we are excited for the fun year ahead of us!
