First Day of School

Here is Maya all ready to tackle her first day of grade one. Thanks to her Grammy she had a new dress to wear as I have been rather slow in making her a new one. She really doesn't need any thing, but she wants alot.
Initially the reports coming home were not so positive, she was sitting beside a boy that she is not to fond of, she couldn't find her friends at recess and walked around with the teacher, and that boy made fun of her carrots at lunch. She didn't like her teacher, she didn't like her classroom, and she had forgotten all her french.
Slowly things have gotten better- I told Maya what to say to the boy if he bothered her. Although it is definitely not nice. Naughty mommy. Her teacher calls her a little cutie and now everything is all butterflies. It was rough for a few days- for both of us- I had flashbacks to my terrible public school years. But now we have settled in. Now if Maya would not make me want to spank her while we are trying to read french. Posted by Picasa
Note Maya's new haircut...she wanted it short short short.
