Our Little Girl's First Day of School!!

Lillian's first day of school is in the books... and she did fantastic. Melissa did well too. We dropped her off a little after the drop-off time so that we could walk her in. Otherwise, they take her from your car, and we thought that would be too traumatizing for our little angel sent from Heaven. Anyway, we dropped her off and she started to cry, so we just turned around and left hoping she would calm down soon. We thought that staying a little to calm her down would make it worse for her when we did leave. Melissa was upset, and the teacher noticed. She called us about 20 minutes later to let us know that Lillian perked right up shortly after we left and was playing with her new friend Winn. This was just what Melissa and I needed to hear. We decided to have a fun lunch date, so we went to Vestavia Bowl for food and bowling after running a few errands. We received another call from the teacher about noon letting us know that Lillian had been doing wonderful, but she was getting a little tired and upset. So, we went ahead and picked her up early. She smiled and laughed when she saw us coming down the hall... what a little faker! Anyways, the teachers said she did wonderful, especially for a first day. Her report for the day is below.

Lillian, Mommy and Daddy are so proud of you and LOVE you more than you will ever know! You are one of God's greatest gifts and we are honored to be your parents.
