Miss K finally started school again. I can’t believe our summer has come and gone already!!. She is very excited to be back with her friends and have a new teacher. When we went shopping for her school supplies she insisted on buying a Hannah Montana backpack. She even used her birthday money to get it since she already had a backpack. It’s so fun when they get into a character that they just HAVE to have the stuff.

When I took her to the back to school BBQ and orientation, she kept saying “mom, you’re embarrassing me.” I was just playing with her hair like I normally do and now she’s become aware that it’s just not cool to have your mom fussing with you. On the second day of school, her grandpa took her to school and asked if she wanted him to walk her to the door. She replied “Grandpa, I’m a big first grader now, I can walk myself.” I guess she’s growing up.

disclaimer: I did not pose her… this is what she wanted to do. She told me she was giving her “sassy look.”
