It's the first day of school. First day of second grade for Reagan.
She's growing so fast!
This morning she said "This year is going to be different from last year." I said, "Of course. It's good to have change. Different teachers do things in different ways, but I think you'll like having a new class and a new teacher." Then she was quiet for a few seconds and then said, "Yah, it's good when school changes. But if next summer is just like this one, that would be ok with me."
My thoughts exactly. We had an awesome summer.
At the beginning of the summer, I had Reagan make a list of all the things she wanted to do before going back to school. With only eight weeks, I wasn't sure we would fit it all in. We only missed one thing. Not too bad for a list with 18 things on it. Reagan also managed to read 32 chapter books. Thank the Lord for the library!
She has matured so much in the past year. She's asking more mature questions, becoming even more helpful, and independent.
And even more beautiful. Inside and out. Only 4 more hours until we go pick her up and hear all about her first day (over our traditional first day of school ice cream of course).
