The Girls First Day of Second Grade

Last Monday, August 15th, was the girls first day of school. I can't believe how quickly the Summer went. But as always, I love sharing their first and last day of school pictures. So here is their first day of second grade. And can I just say, how are my girls in second grade already? And how do they look so big?







Drop off was a bit rough for the girls. They started getting nervous on our walk up to the second grade doors. Then when I took Avery into her class, she started crying. But she knew her teacher from recess last year, so her teacher reassured her that she was going to have fun this year. I brought her to her desk, gave her hugs and kisses and then a friend from Sutton's class last year came over and told Avery it was ok to be scared and nervous as she was too. But that she will make friends fast and it will be a fun year. That little girl definitely made her day.

Then I took Sutton over to her class and she cried as well because her sister was in another class across the way and they wouldn't see each other until recess. I brought Sutton to her desk and she had some friends in class and immediately perked up. That last picture is of her. I gave her hugs and kisses and went on my way after snapping the photo. Then we peaked in on them through their windows and headed out. 

I walked home, finished packing and getting ready, then did some work and headed off to Colorado. So we had to facetime at the end of the day to hear all about their first day. They had the best time, are super excited for this school year and there were no more tears.

Now to hope for a smooth school year!

    1. It really is. It broke my heart that they missed each other and missed us. But I am glad that it turned for the better.

  4. Doesn't it break your heart when they cry at dropoff? Olivia used to cry every day at dropoff when she was younger and it was impossible leaving her behind. It has to be so tough for them to be split up, too. I'm sure they'll end up loving it, though... just takes some time to get acclimated. I hope this is their best year yet!
