First Day

Today was Quinne's first day of school!

In the morning, she picked a flower for the welcome ceremony. She chose a sunflower that she planted from a seed...


Beck chose a flower also...


Quinne's kindergarten teacher led her into the big school where the rest of the kids were assembled to welcome the new class...



Amy didn't even cry...


This is what Quinne's new classroom looks like...


She's even more excited to go back tomorrow.

She's a very pretty girl. Looks just like her Mom. I'll bet you are not missing the fact that you don't have to go to the Nat'l Sales Meeting in Atlanta tomorrow. I am dreading it :(.
