School Days

The girls are loving school, especially Joanna!  Sad this is Jo's last year in pre-k so we are enjoying all the activities...field trips, school hoedown, spending time with friends outside of school.  Vivian is loving 1st grade and we were able to attend her class fall party.

First Day of First Grad and PreK4

Last year of preschool and Vivian has one year under her belt in big girl school.

Pre-K3 for Joanna

JoJo's turn starting school and she was so happy to go back and see all of her little buddies.  She has the same Pre-k teacher as Vivian for the 3 year old class, Mrs. Lori.  She's also the only little girl again, but she doesn't mind.  She can hang with the boys!  

We entered the 3 year old class potty trained and sleeping in a big girl bed.  Two very big milestones!

Like Vivian, the school year started short because of Hurricane Florence.  Hopefully school will start back in a couple of weeks.  I know a little girl who's ready to be back in school!

Preschool Graduation

I can officially say I have a kindergartner and a preschooler.  Can't believe my sweet Vivian has completed preschool.  Seriously, time truly flies!

I remember when she started the 2's class like it was yesterday wondering how she was going to do without mommy for a few hours two days a week.  Then while seeing the 4's during that time playing on the playground before school pick-up then seeing them line up on Friday's for lunch bunch, and thinking, this will be Vivian before I know it.

   

I am so so proud of her!  She is so smart, sweet and talented.  Sweet girl sang loud and proud at graduation with her southern twang.  I think she wanted daddy to hear her all the way in Russia!  Gosh I love her!

Joanna was cute as can be walking down the aisle singing her little songs.  

We are so incredibly blessed with our two beautiful girls.  I cannot wait to see what 'big girl' school has in-store for Vivian.  I know she will do amazing!  I truly wish I could keep them little forever!  Vivian tells me all the time she doesn't want to grow-up.  Me either sweet darling, me either.
