Friday was Olivia's first day of kindergarten. I was so excited for her because I really think she's ready, and it's pretty easy to leave her when John, Olivia, and I are basically all in the same building all day. But boy, it did choke me up Friday morning, mostly because my little girl isn't so little anymore. She told me she was a little bit scared but I think she just said that because she saw the tears well up in my eyes about eight times that day. She loved her first day, and she loves her teacher because "she's so pretty." Friday night they had a back to school nite, and her teacher told us Olivia talked a lot during class Friday but that a lot of the time she was telling one little boy to behave (imagine that - Olivia thinking she can handle something instead of letting the adult do it). Olivia picked a pink skirt and a shirt that said "Daddy's Rockstar" for her first day. Here's some pics of her and Em on the first day.
Today I am enjoy some very rare solitude, after a busy weekend. John and Olivia are swimming and Emery is sleeping, so it is quiet in here. I'm not about to turn on a TV or radio. Friday night Olivia had two friends over for the big High School Musical 2 premiere. They had a lot of fun, and they are such good girls. Craig also stopped by to spend some time with us - he left for the Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC Saturday, and we wish him the best! I can't wait to go visit him.
Well, I guess I'll get back to my book. I picked up a new ghost story "Heart Shapred Box" by Joe Hill and it's the best book I've read in awhile. A lot of "scary" stories are really gory but this one is a lot less gore and a lot more mystery. Have a great week!
