First Day of School, 2nd Grade

Little Sue was so ready for school to start this year! The day before, she had planned exactly what she wanted to wear, she had organized her backpack with all her new school supplies, and she was clearly impatient for school to start.

On the morning of, she got up about 1/2 hour early, and she was a model child: she got herself dressed (she usually wants Mommy around for companionship), she helped with breakfast and preparing lunch, she was cheerful and happy. She was ready to go 1/2 hour before we had to leave for the bus.

After school, she was supposed to take the bus to her after school arts program, but she took the bus home. When noone was there to pick her up, she was not fazed. She took the bus back to school, where they called Tabor, and the director (!) drove over to pick her up. She didn't freak out or get upset. Amazing.

Here is Sue with Tori, who lives in the house right at the bus stop, and is also in Sue's class this year.



Sue is carrying a stuffed whale that her friend Maia left at our house the day before.


The usual crew at the bus stop:


Sue loves to make funny faces for the camera.
