Right before we were about to leave this morning Emma started crying. It was totally out of the blue because she had been so excited. I remembered that every year growing up my Dad would give me a blessing on the first day of school. So I asked Aaron to give Emma a Fathers Blessing and after that she was ready.
I was very brave when we dropped her off. I didn't cry, Aaron kept telling me that "You have to cut the apron strings sometime."
When we walked out of the school Chloe was so sad. She started crying and kept saying "I want to go to Emma's school." We took her home and put her down for a nap and the first thing she said when she woke up was "I want Emma!"
It was a fun day for us, a lot of bitter sweet moments. Chloe is happy that Emma is home, I don't think she realizes that we have to do it all again tomorrow. When I asked Emma what she learned at school today she said, "I forget." Here we go. :)

Emma looks so cute! I can't believe she's in school now. I hope she loves it. Great pictures
Awww. I know how you feel- Karter starts tommorrow. So, I thought Emma was going to do preschool? This has been a hard decision for us (whether to start Karter this year or not) and we definitely think he's ready, but we're not ruling out doing K again when we move. I just can't believe he's going. That's so sweet how much Chloe misses Emma! I hope everything goes smoothly for you guys! Emma is such a beautiful sweet girl!
On my gosh! I cannot believe you have a child in school! Crazy! Those pictures of Chloe make me want to cry! That is so cute, but sad. Way to go for not crying!
Your girls are so cute. I can't believe Emma started school! I hope you are having fun with Mom and Dad. We sure miss you!
