First day of school 2012

Tuesday was our first day of school.  Emmerson was so excited!  It was all she talked about for days!  She has the same teacher as last year but she moved upstairs to the preschool.  Claire started the mothers day out program.


Emmerson told us, "Mommy if I hear Baby cry I will go to her room and remind her that Mamas always come back".  Such a sweet big sister. 


Emmerson was also set on wearing matching outfits...she kept saying that way everyone will know we are sisters.  Who could say no to that? 




Best part of going to school = lunch boxes.  They double as our purses!


Already to go in!


Emmerson in her classroom.  She had homework.  This is her E she had to decorate for the wall.  She marched right in with a huge smile!  She LOVES school!


Claire has seen her sister put her lunch box away when she gets to school so she was excited to do the same.  Such a big girl!


Not sure Claire knew what she was getting into.  She walked right in and started playing.  Of course that was with Mom and Dad with her.  She only fussed a bit when we left and over all they said she did pretty well.  They said she was "weepy" at times.  Better than we thought knowing she really hasn't been away from us.  I think she missed Emmerson more than us.  She was SO excited to see her.  She literally jumped into her arms.  She kept hugging her and smiling while saying Emme!  Emmerson's teacher and I couldn't believe it!  As hard as it is to leave her we know this is the right thing for her to gain some independence.  We will see how day two goes...


SO happy to be back together!
