Ella's first day at School

We had a very long night last night. Ella had a hard time going to sleep. Finally at 9:30 she was able to lay still enough to fall asleep. Then she woke up at 3:00 and again at 5:00. When she woke up at 5:00 she told me it was time to make her lunch. I told her it was time to lay in bed with mommy and cuddle. We were up at 6:30. I have never seen her eat so well, and fast, and get dressed and do her hair, with out complaining. She had lots of fun helping make her lunch.
So it is off to Kindergarten for Ella. She goes 9-3. I hope she is not to tired since she didn't sleep so well.
This is Bree trying not to smile. She was not very happy to have Ella leave her. She threw a fit and wouldn't keep her shoes one. We left 10min later then I wanted to, and parking was horrible. I had to run a block and a half caring Owen and dragging Bree who lost her shoe 3 times. Ella made it in time to line up, and before the final bell.
The little boy in the red shirt is in her primary class at church so she has a friend. Not sure if that is good or bad. The morning was so rushed I didn't have time to cry, so I do think that was good.
However Bree had plenty of time to cry and be sad her sister was leaving and she couldn't stay with her sister and play on the slide.

Awww! So cute!! Poor Bree. I want to give her a hug. Brendan is going to be going to a speech class three times a week for 1 1/2 hours with 4 other kids at the local elementary. We got him a little backpack. It is just one step towards him leaving to go off to kindergarten. It makes me a little sad that my little boys is growing up so fast!

Wow, can't believe Ella beat Talmage :). Such a big day, just two more weeks and it'll be our turn. Poor Bree. It's no fun to be left behind. I hope you are doing well and not too sad :). They grow up too fast.
