My great big kindergartner







This last Monday was Sage's first day of school. Every once in a while during these last month I would get choked up just thinking about it. It helped to know that she was totally ready emotionally, mentally, and physically. When I was explaining to her that on the first day I would walk in with her and say goodbye, she told me that she could just walk in herself! No need for me! This year she has a great teacher and we are all ready for the schedules to come back into the Romney household. She chose a High School Musical One backpack, she says she wants to start collecting backpacks. She thinks it's so cool that I have a "purse collection" because I have more than one purse. Her next backpack on the list Is a Hannah Montana backpack!

I can't believe our girls are getting so old! I never imagine them actually growing up, and then it happens! I wish Lilly and Sage could be in class together. So cute!

So cute! Remember our first day and how we all lined up at the wall for pictures? Such great memories...

I sent you a link to our blog, but I'm not sure if it worked. Send me an email (lizzy.hawkins@gmail.com) and I'll send it again.

You have a kindergartner! That is so weird. You and Katie have these old daughters! She is so adorable- your girls always look so cute. They totally remind me of the Burr girls when they were little. Do you remember how perfect they always looked? It figures though because you are always darling as well.
