The "First Day" - Remember When?


It is Monday night, the girls are tucked in their beds and are nervous/excited about school. Bayat has verbalized this to us and Kidist has shown us in other ways. Tonight's dinner topic was all about what we do at school. So we talked about circle time and the calendar, the weather, etc. Bayat smiled as we have been working on that here at home so it is a little familiar to her. (a little relief creeps in at this moment). Then we talk about how they will probably learn some letters or ABC's and numbers 123's and they both smile because that too is becoming familiar to them. We talk about writing their names and using scissors to cut and then I'm asked, "Mommy, can we cut?" [picture the fingers making a cutting motion, because Bayat was not so sure how to ask about cutting]. I said, "Sure, we can practice a little tonight so that you are ready for tomorrow." And we did after our shower and hair beautification routine.

So as there is a picture of mommy's first day, there will be pictures posted of both of the girls first days too! So be anxiously waiting for the princesses' pictures on their first day of school!
