So here it is. My one and only baby starts Kindergarten. Sigh. I knew this day would come but it doesn't make it any easier. I swear she grew up literally overnight. She is so ready. So I guess I have to be too. I will just miss having her be my buddy all day.
Last Friday was "Meet The Teacher" where we got to find out who her teacher would be and go and see the classroom. She got a haircut {chopped off about 8 inches at least} before we left Utah a few weeks ago and wanted to make her own hairbow to wear to the event. Not sure how well it worked out but it was good practice in tying. {thanks kristi for the olive juice sale notice and notice the necklace laurie?}. We had to drag her out when it was over. So I guess that bodes well for her future kindergarten career. She wanted to stay and check it all out. Her teacher seems very nice so I guess I can trust her to watch over my sweet E.
Channeling my "Inner Kristi", E and I made this flower vase for her teacher.
It's just a bunch of #2 pencils around a Crystal Light canister thingy {you could use a OJ can too}. We used 3 white rubberbands to hold them in place and a piece of cardboard taped on the bottom to hold them up. You could glue them on but I like the idea of the teacher being able to use the pencils for her class when the flowers fade away. The flowers were beautiful. But I did not know that these particular red sunflowers where dyed red. The water was so pink and turned everything pink. So glad I used a disposable vase. Just thought I'd let you know if you plan on using them in a clear vase. You have to like pink & red together. {i'm personally not a huge fan}
Overall :: Meet the Teacher a Huge Success
