Kate had a great day today. She had her first day of preschool and it went really well; so well that she wasn't too happy to see me when I came to pick her up. I recognize that this is a good sign, but I'm wondering when I'm going to get some credit! If I were to make Kate's top five favorite things about preschool I would suggest the following list:
1. Spencer pulls her in the bike trailer to school
2. Bikes on the playground
3. Grape Juice
4. Low Sinks
5. Ainsley, our neighbor at our previous residence
Like many of you I have seen a lot of blogs lately about Back to School Rituals. I think these are a fantastic idea and we were able to have a Preschool Eve dinner last night. Kate just happened to have a friend over for dinner, she was able to pick our meal and then Spencer gave her a Father's Blessing, a specific prayer for Kate, that she would have a successful school year. I know it made Kate feel special and seemed to help her recognize the significance of today. Little does she know she's got another 20+ years of school to go, with any luck.

Awww, so cute! I love the back-to-school dinner idea. We ended up doing a bts breakfast, since Isaac likes pancakes better than anything else I cook. How many days a week is she going? She looks very cute and excited!
She goes everyday for 3 and 1/2 hrs. I feel like it's comparable to half day kindergarten, which they don't do here.
I love the idea of a back to school dinner!! and I love having a worthy priesthood holder in the home for blessings :: it is really amazing :)
Looks like she has great taste in food... that looks delish! Congrats Kate!
Hey, isn't that one of the outfits you finally convinced her to try on? It worked!
What a big girl and a fun idea to make it extra special.
Hey Kate - what a big girl you are! I wish I could have been there for the Back to School Dinner....it looks yummy and Anna seems to be enjoying it alot too. I bet she misses you when you are off at school. Have a great time at school....can you send me a letter???? I would like a pretty picture too.
Love Grandmeremere (the queen of wackiness)
