I Ain't Missing You At All


Well, maybe I'm missing her just a little bit. Today was the first day of school and my oldest went off to first grade! Yesterday hubby gave her a father's blessing that addressed all the issues she had been worrying about over the summer. This is a true testament to the power of the priesthood, because I don't think he knew about half of the things she was worrying about. But, this morning she woke up ready to go and excited. I curled her hair and tried it a new way, which I think turned out cute, but as soon as we walked out, I could see the curl start to fall. Boy, was it humid! We got her off smoothly, though two of us (not me!) were still in our pajamas. And now we have the whole day to fill without her! OK, now I'm making myself a little sad. ;) We took these pictures in front of our house. Other kids stand there when you say, "Let's take a picture." Not my girl! She looks over her shoulder and blows kisses! Can she really be only six?

Cute cute pics! What a nut!

I've tried calling you for 2 days. Do you want Jane's old clothes? Will they fit her? Just let me know. They are 6 and 7s.

She's a little poser like my Natalie. I

Have a fun day knowing she's having a
fun day too!
