I asked both girls what their favorite part of the day was. The May said "seeing The Belle at snack time" (which made my heart happy) and The Belle said "science". Apparently, her science teacher told the class a story about his sister eating an ant when they lived in Australia. The ant was not dead and it attached to his sisters throat!!! The Belle was totally amazed and has told everyone the ant story.
Both girls did say that they almost cried at some point in the day but didn't. The May told Scotty "my eyes just got a little wet".
I have to say it was a little strange only having one child but I think The Lynn enjoyed her one on one time with me. After we dropped the big girls off we went for a run. She was happy to ride in her jogging stroller and pointed out all the things she saw (leaves, dog, pond, birds, rocks, etc.). I have to admit running while pushing a jogging stroller (with a 2 1/2 year old inside) is no easy task!!!
Aunt Sarah invited us out to dinner to celebrate the first day of school tonight. The girls were excited to take their first trip to Chili's; and we were excited for the kids eat free coupon that Aunt Sarah gave us! The kids had a great time telling each other about their first day. We all decided that we should make it a tradition to eat dinner together on the first day of school every year. All in all it was a really good day! Here's to a great school year :)
