4th Grade!!

Hot of the camera this morning!! I told Emma people would be checking this morning for a 4th grade picture and here you go!!!

She picked a PEACE shirt to wear this morning...I know you are all surprised!! School bells are ringing again. I can't believe that summer is over. It seems like we just got started in so many ways, but then again in other ways, it seemed like the new school year was never going to get here. Emma was so excited this morning. Actually, she has been excited ever since she went to the school Monday night to meet the teacher and discovered that her best friend was in her class for the 3rd year in a row (I did ask the teacher to not sit them beside each other). She also has another friend in her class that lives across the street. I am feeling really good about Emma's teacher this year. She is new to North Carolina. She just moved here from PA, and she seems so excited and eager to get started, and has really made a good first impression on me. She has been teaching for 14 years. She seems to have some really good ideas for the kids and how to make learning fun. I am excited to see what this school year brings. Emma is really excited about getting started and I hope that her excitement can continue on through out the school year. I can't believe that Emma is starting 4th grade. It doesn't seem right. I remember 4th grade, and I can't believe I have a child that age. She is the sweetest thing and I can't wait to see what kind of things we will be learning about this year. GOOD LUCK EMMA!! I know this is going to be a wonderful year for you, and you are going to learn tons!! We love you so much and are so excited for your new school year!!

Stay tuned... Leah meets her teacher tomorrow and starts Kindergarten on Sept. 3rd. I will post pictures of her as soon as it gets here (as long as I am not in the hospital or something like that!!)
