Ella's First Day of Kindergarten

Today is Ella's first day of kindergarten.  We hope she will have a great year, enjoy herself, and learn a lot.  She did well heading off on the bus and told us she was most excited for meeting her teacher, going to Art class, playing basketball in Gym class, and riding the bus.

  2. I just love these pictures. Madge is right it's one of many milestonses with a wonderful Mom and Dad! Both of you I know are very proud! Ella really looked excited and happy to start school and that is really great! Molly looked like she was ready with her backpack and all. Great Job! Mommy and Daddy!!!!
