Meg Updates: First Day of School Photo Shoot

Meg was supposed to go to JK this September but we decided against it for a variety of reasons. Our plan up until last week was to keep her at her preschool another year, and then the Montessori school called and said they had a spot for her! We were very excited because it offers the best of both worlds - more focus on learning in a classroom environment, combined with the security/safety we loved of her preschool.
Montessori follows the school calendar so she had her first day on Tuesday. She was excited and nervous but she did REALLY well. There were no tears, just her looking out the window as we drove away. Mom had a few tears after leaving because it really made me realize our little girl is growing up!
We were anxious to pick her up. When we got there she came running and jumped right into daddy's arms. She told us all about it and was very excited. She said she didn't want to go back to preschool again. She was very excited to have a new friend, Avery, who lives right behind us.
All in all, a good start to a new school year.
Below is our some pics of our photo shoot the morning of her first day.
