Ella's First Day of Pre-K

This post is about a month overdue---Ella's first day of Pre-K was in mid-September, but I haven't gotten around to posting the pictures.  She is having a great time with her new teachers, who are so enthusiastic and warm, and she is enjoying the activities that her class is doing.  Ella's two favorite activities---bringing home the class bear, Franklin, for the weekend (a separate post to follow on that) and "doing homework" (she has to cut out pictures for each letter of the alphabet--one per week--and write the words).

intently examining the fish
She says, "Mommy!  Fishies...open...please!"  She wants me to open the fish tank for her to touch the fish.

  2. Ella looks so grown-up. We all know she has a good teacher at home and will excel. Love her backpack. Love those pictures of Molly with the fish. Rob and you had the most beautiful little girls. I cannot believe how big Ella and Molly are getting.
