Chinese Immersion

Lucy is starting her first day, full time, as a kindergartner at Meadowbrook in the Mandarin program.  She was so excited to go to school today.  Thanks grandma for letting the puppy stay for awhile.  Lucy gave the job of taking care of the dog to Kadence, with full instructions while she was gone at school!  Love this girl from her nose to her toes!

Waiting for the bus!  It was cold outside this morning!  Kadence wondered if it was winter.

Daddy got to wait with us too

Off she goes!  All smiles, which melted my heart....she was so ready.  I on the other hand was not.  I waited until the bus rounded the corner before I burst out into tears.  Lucy is such a sweet, wonderful girl.  I will miss her everyday!
We've kept ourselves busy all day.  Kadence has enjoyed playing by herself, but keeps asking when Lucy will be home, and TJ keeps looking around, knowing someone is missing, yet unable to verbalize anything.  We've cleaned, switched out our summer dresses for fall clothes, and even baked Lucy some homemade chocolate chip ice cream sandwich cookies!  Hurry back Lucy!  We are sure you had a great day, and we can't wait to hear all about it!
