Alivia Goes to School

So Alivia has now started kindergarten. I am so blessed that I was able to be there with her on her first day. We started off the morning with Alivia getting to play with Drew, Levi, Elise, and my mom which was a great start to Alivias day. My mom came over to watch Elise while Ashley and I took Alivia to school. So while Ashley was getting Alivias lunch ready I made her a pancake and everyone sat at the table and talked while Alivia ate her breakfast. Then we got ready to leave. We took some pictures before we left the house just like we do every year.

Walking into school

                                                                                                                                When we arrived at her school it was kind of crazy. The parking lot was full and people were everywhere. We were directed to the gym where they were playing music and kids were packed in. Most kids would have been a little freaked out by this and I’ll admit it was a little intimidating so naturally I was a little worried how Alivia was going to take it. When I looked down at her and smiled she smiled right back and it seemed like she was right in her element. What an amazing child, I just love that girl. We followed her teacher down the hall full of kids of all ages and got to the classroom. Her teacher told them to put up their backpacks and sit in their seat. Alivia did just that! And she was ready for the day. That is when Ashley and I knew that she is definitely prepared for this. Elise on the other hand was not very prepared for her big sis to be gone all day. She really loves her “BeBe” and they are such a great pair. I do however feel sorry for Elise that she misses Alivia so much during the day but hopefully this will make Elise just as independent as Alivia is. I am such a proud dad right now!!
