KINDERGARTEN!!!!!


Today we hit a major milestone for all of us....Jansen's first day of Kindergarten! Though we were all excited this morning, it was also a shock to our systems with Jansen in school now, we had to modify our morning schedule just a bit! So today we got up 30 minutes earlier than usual and the kids ate breakfast at home (which they usually do on the run in the car or once they got to preschool!!!)

But we managed pretty well and even got to school before the 'early' bell at 7:45! Jansen couldn't wait to get to school this morning...when I went in to wake her up, she hopped right out of bed and exclaimed 'I LOVE this day!!!'. Then she promptly got dressed in her bumble bee shirt and cute skirt with silver sandals, then headed to the kitchen for some Fruit Loops!

The school drop off was in classic 'Richardson' style - Me, Mikey, Hudson, Auntie Shan and Auntie Franny and Grandma Deebee...you know we travel in packs!

Jansen did GREAT with drop off and didn't have a second's hesitation. She sat right down in her seat and was ready for the day to start. And then to my surprise, I didn't even cry! I think I was just too darn excited (and proud of her) to even think about crying!

I can't wait to get home tonight to hear all about her day!!!

Getting ready to head to school!

She's a Yale Roadrunner now!

Always a family affair!

Even Grandma Deebee came to wish her well!
