First Day of Pre-K

Today is Ada's first day of Pre-Kindergarten. She is so excited! Her new teachers are Mrs. Byrd (she's not a real bird though, Ada told her Granny) and Ms. Emily. Her closest friend from school last year, Avery, is in her class and she will be going M, W, and F this year. They don't take naps this year and classroom rules say she can't bring her B. She took the news like a champ.

When we arrived in class, she was told to hang her backpack on a hook (that she's too short to reach) and to sit at her spot at the table where she had her own 3-ring binder and school supply box. She learned so much last year and we are excited to see what many things she learns this year. They will work on numbers, letters and reading, math, science, even some Spanish.

You are such a smart girl, Ada. Mommy and Daddy are so proud of you. Not only are you smart, but you are kind and care for others well. You are the best big sister! You are so fun. You sing and dance and dress up and pretend to be a princess or to play family. We love who you are and who you are becoming.
