Today is the first day of school (Alec started Monday, but we're counting today as the first day).
This morning was a bit different than previous years. Girls spending much more time working on their hair. Katie washed and straightened hers last night, then curled it this morning. Emma showered this morning, then I dried and straightened and added a braid.
Also, Katie expanded on her makeup. We added eyeshadow in this year. And an eyelash curler. She wanted eyeliner, but we're waiting until high school for that. Last year was the start, with mascara and lip gloss. I'm having a super hard time watching her (letting her) grow up!
Alec slept until the last minute and got ready on his own. He was sleepy and cranky (gee, where does he get that from?). He made a quick breakfast and out we went.
I have always taken photos outside on the first day of school, but Alec wouldn't let me this year. So I had to sneak in shots when he wasn't looking.
Katie took the bus with her friends, but I dropped off Emma and Alec.
Here's to a new year full of possibilities!
And a chance for me to remain young. Ha!
