Taylor was excited about starting 2nd grade, but did NOT want me taking pictures of her. She's just like her dad. We made a deal that I would walk her to her class every morning if she would just let me get a few.:) I can't believe she's getting to the age where that sort of thing embarrases her. That makes me sad...I am a picture taking fool.
When we got to Honey there were kids, parents, and cameras everywhere. We took our time, holding hands, walking to her classroom. I could tell she was a little nervous - just a tad. But she's so big. She found her locker, put her backpack up, and then went to her desk. She is a very prepared student!:) I stayed with her a few minutes, and then kissed her head and left. It was a little sad leaving her - my baby girl is growing up too fast.
I left and headed for Tech. My class went well. I believe there are only nine people in it - so that's nice. It definitely feels like this is the right decision. Taylor thinks it's neat that I'm going back to school to become a teacher. The two of us have homework dates planned every evening. Seven o' clock sharp at the kitchen table! Maybe one day I'll be a Honey Bear too!:) In a perfect world it would work out that way.
All in all, today was a great start to the new year. And it's not over yet. I know by the end of it I will be one tired pup! But I can't be too tired...the Democratic National Convention starts tonight! WOOHOO!!!!!!!!
Love the face!

I cant even imagine what sending my baby to school will feel like, and you have been at this for a while! Happy first day Talor, I hope you had a great day!!!
Sorry Taylor, I promise I can spell your name:)
Happy First day of school!! Grayson flat out refused for me to walk him to class, he is a cool 3rd grader...blah! Glad your first day back was good Amanda!
Just wait until she's too cool to even let you walk her to class, by 4th grade I was no longer needed ;-( She is still my baby @ home though & occasionally she'll let me hold her hand in public! We have those same book covers from Tarjay...they only fit one of her books!
The pictures are precious! Taylor is beautiful! I can't believe she's in 2nd grade!! :) Love your "Honey" and "TTU" shirts - Praying for a great semester!
I love, love, love the picture of you two in your first day shirts! I can totally see that in Taylor's graduation slide show one day...precious memories!
Glad everybody's first day was successful! Go Honey Bears and Go Red Raiders!
