First Day of School

I guess I'm a little behind. I haven't posted our first day of school pictures and the first 6 weeks report cards will be coming home in a few days! Miss M and Miss A are in third and first grade. Miss K moved up to the "Threes" class at the preschool she attends three mornings a week. We are so blessed that our girls are able to spend their school days with talented teachers, sweet friends and at schools that make it a priority to weave the story of Jesus and the goodness of God into every subject. I love that all three of them are enthusiastic about school and are eager about learning. I look forward to hearing them recount all they've learned and all the interesting and hilarious little things that have happened in the classroom each day.

Here are their "first day" pictures. I decided to re-interview them with the same questions I asked this time last year--and see how much they've changed (and surprisingly, how much they've stayed the same!).
