Grade 2

Unbelievable. Abby is old enough to be in 2nd grade! Yikes... time flies. That said, I am more than happy that she is back in school. Keeping an active 7 year old busy all summer while juggling naps and quiet time has been a challenge. She wanted to be working on a project or playing at all times. While she did a lot of reading, she didn't want to do it during quiet time.

Anyway, here she is on her first day of school. She only knew a few other girls in the class but was happy to catch up with her best friend Katie. She got reacquainted with a friend named Kaylen from Kindergarten who is in her class this year. They had a little ceremony for the first day - saying the pledge, singing the school song. Then off they went!

The last photo was taken last night at the school open house. She was showing off her new desk! Front & center!!!
