1st day of S.C.H.O.O.L!!

 2 years old and ready for preschool!!  We decided to enroll Caroline in a Mother's Day out program at a local church near by.  She started on Tuesday and will go every Tuesday and Thursday from 9am-2pm.  We were a little nervous about her being gone so long, but she did GREAT!!  I'm assuming that she was pretty worn out from the weekend so Tuesday morning I had to wake her up at 8:20am.  We were a little rushed and had to hurry to get out of the house on time, but we made it and even had a couple minutes to snap a few pictures.
 Josh was really busy, but went in to work SUPER early and came home to go with us.
 Walking in like such a BIG girl!!
 She walked in like a PRO!  She went straight through the door and hardly looked back. This was a little bittersweet for us, but just showed us what an independent girl she is.
When I came back to pick Caroline up, this is how I found her!!  There were 3 other kids in the classroom running around and playing while my little girl slept in the corner.  She was still asleep and it took me getting down and talking to her to wake her up.
I probably could have put Caroline back down when we got home, but instead we opted for celebrating the first day of school with some ICE CREAM!  We headed to Chic-fil-a where she got a treat and a chance to play. 

 What a BIG day!!  Caroline did so great and loved telling me all about school!  Her teachers said she was the only one to go down the BIG slide and marched right on up and did it all by herself.  We are so proud of the strong and independent girl that she has become.  It is hard to let her go a little, but she shines in every situation.  I wish time would just freeze and both Caroline and Cooper would stay this age forever!!  But every time I look up, I like the stage they are in more than the last.  They just get more fun!!  I love you sweet Caroline!
