A First Grader in our Midst

Whoa...it is hard to fathom that the Moloko household has a First Grader! Big Sister headed off to school yesterday with a huge smile and a sense of excitement. As the "morning greeter" opened our car door and directed her into the school, I watched her trudge ahead and not look back. I drove home marveled by my brave little girl entering her new school with such a sense of purpose.

Upon hearing that she was required to wear a uniform daily, Big Sister was not thrilled. However, when she realized that she has two uniform options to chose from she was relieved. So, yesterday, she headed out in her polo/walking short ensemble and today she selected the traditional plaid jumper and peter pan collared shirt. I had to chuckle as she insisted I take photos of her in both of her uniforms to mark her first days of school in Virginia.

Our Adorable Catholic Girl

Fortunately, with two days complete, she is enjoying school and having a great time meeting her new classmates. It sounds like she has some characters in her class and a really special teacher. Here's to a great year ahead!
