First grade!

My big girl started first grade last month. How is it at all possible that she is 6 1/2 (almost 7 as she often reminds me!) and in first grade!

Seems like she was a nervous little girl just starting kindergarten and is now a first grader who confidently found her friends on the playground and didn't have a problem with us leaving on the first day. 

She LOVES her teacher and tells me everyday about all the great things she is learning.

I am thankful that her closest friends from her kindergarten class ended up in her first grade class with her, and I am thankful that she is having an easy time making new friends.
