Post-Kindergarten Success!

Here's Elizabeth coming out the door to meet me after kindergarten (the picture caught her somewhere in the middle of giving her teacher five on the way out the door). See the happy smile hiding behind the hand?

She reports that her favorite part was "everything" and was full of stories about her day (three people had apple juice boxes at lunch, no one cried because they missed their parents but one person got a little owie, they got to go to the playground TWO times, and the play food in the pretend kitchen looks very real).

We had talked about how she'll have to eat her lunch much faster than she does at home, and she proudly reported that she finished everything in her lunch just in time. When we got home and I unpacked her lunchbox, I discovered half her lunch in there that she hadn't noticed! So we added a half-lunch to her afternoon snack. All in all, it was a great day.

Amelie missed her sister a LOT and was pretty much a bear all day. I hope she adjusts fast.
