Time to meet the teacher!
Isabella was thrilled that she got the teacher that she wanted. Sophia was nervous about meeting her teacher and checking out the classroom. A few days before school started we went to the school to drop off supplies and meet the teachers. We went to Sophia's class first and my baby was feeling very shy. She checked out her desk, cubby, locker and stayed very close to my side. She walked around exploring her new classroom by looking through the lens of my camera.

Isabella was so excited to get to her new classroom and see her friends! She checked out her desk, talked with the teacher and chatted with friends she had missed this summer.

My heart swelled with joy of excitement that morning...that is until the bus drove away. Part of my heart went on that bus and ached from watching my youngest child head off to school. I missed them the moment the bus went away and savored the moment. Just a few hours later I had lunch duty at school and was so happy to see my girls enjoying school.
As they say "The days are long, but the years are short." Thankfully my girls hopped off the bus with smiles and hugs. The both had a great day! Sophia's favorite part of school was riding the bus.
