First Day of Pre-K! Woo-Hoo!

I am sure that in history there have been other children start to Pre-K, but not here in Chloe's World. She was the first! After discovering that the 'mink' was not invited there were thoughts that Chloe might not attend. After all, when have you EVER seen Chloe without the 'mink'? When have you EVER seen Chloe in a reclining position without the 'mink' right at her nose? NEVER!!! There was a lot of anxious moments leading up to the first all-day visit which was today, August 14, 2008. Chloe and 4 of her other classmates met for a full day of school. But just a few hours earlier we had gathered at the Penne Pasta Store [known to some as Old Town Spaghetti Store] to try and calm 'her' nerves. See how cute she looks before leaving...

Chloe opened a big old Princess bag with a leopard print backpack and a lunchbox. See how much she loves them!

The morning of the BIG DAY dawns... Chloe dresses in one of her school clothes outfits and grabs her leopard print backpack! How cute is she!


And then, the trip to school. Look who's a happy girl, eating her breakfast and getting her picture made with her teacher...

And then, pictures with Mommy so she could go to work... Mommy's smiling in the picture... but guess how big that lump in her throat is??? Guess how much Mommy wants to make sure that today is just perfect even if the 'mink' is classrooms away in GaGa's cabinet?

Would you like to guess who had a great day at Pre-K??? And, who slept on her mat without the 'mink'? I knew she could do it! I was never worried at all!
