Our Second Grader

Today is Makenna's first day of the 2008-09 school year. She is in second grade! Where has the time gone?!? We had a rough night before bed. Makenna was concerned that she'd have to learn/know cursive on the first day. We assured her that she would not have to deal with cursive the first day and that she would be able to see her school friends again, so she finally settled down to sleep. An interesting tidbit, her teacher Miss Steele was Rick's second grade teacher (at a different school). Makenna is the first child of a student Miss Steele has ever had.

Thankfully this morning was uneventful. We're anxious to see how her day went, so we'll be waiting at the end of the driveway to see her this afternoon.

She jumped on the bus so fast I didn't even get a picture.
