We had lots of fun getting Abby ready for school this year. Starting off a month ago with her very first eye exam with Dr. Gail May. She came out of that appointment wanting to for sure be an eye doctor when she grows up. The staff there was really good with kids. Next came her kindergarten doctors exam on Sunday with a brand new doc we've never met. Turns out Dr. Sunder at Naperville Pediatrics was great and the office staff was sweet. But 4 shots and a finger poke blood draw made for a teary child. She was very proud of herself after all was said and done. She wore those 5 bandaids like badges of honor.
We met with abby's teacher for an hour on Tuesday. Mrs. Paula Loret De Mola is her name. when the teacher was sone speaking to the kids and parents she asked if anyone had any questions. Abby immediately raised her hand and said, "Ummmmmm. Ummmmmm. Ummm. I am going to go to college." That was great said Mrs. L who then asked if ABby could tie her shoes yet. Abby said no. Teacher said- Well I'll help you learn that and a few other things and then you can go off to college, get married, and all that." It was funny.
Here are some pictures of the night before school hot fudge sunday party and getting on the bus. Colby had to participate so he had on a backpack and waited for the bus with her. Later in the day he asked me if I missed Abby. I said "Yah. I do" thinking it was observant of him to ask that. I asked him if he missed abby too. "No. I happy" and his smile showed it.
