First day of first grade …

I neglected to post pictures of this earlier, so here they are.  L is officially a first grader:

She was very anxious that I get a picture of her backpack, with the lizards she’d made hooked to the zipper.  It was all I could do to get her to turn around and look at me. 

When she was satisfied that I’d gotten pictures of her backpack, she turned to let me get her face better (which I care about more than her backpack!).

On a side note, did you know I had curly hair?  I sure didn’t.  Then I dropped S off at preschool with fresh from the shower, wet hair, and her teacher looked at me and said, “I didn’t know you had naturally curly hair!”  She’s been instructing me on what to do with it and what products to use, and while I don’t have ringlets, it has gotten plenty more “wavy” since I’ve been following her instructions.
