A BIG week!!

While I am a week late in posting about the big week we had, here it is.  Big J started kindergarten on Aug 30th:
She AND mom did great, no tears from either of us!  And still just as happy at the end of the day!
And it is great that her good, good friend, "J" from her daycare/preschool is also in her class.  Aren't they the cutest?
(Do you love the peace out backpack?)
And on the second day of kindergarten, Big J turned FIVE!
(the shirt is from Pitter Patter Art - also the girls birthday shirts from last year that they are wearing in the post right before this are also from there, and we all have our Africa tees from this site too!  Very talented young lady!)
She was most excited at opening this gift.......
uh huh....corn on the cob holders!  After the initial thrill of those wore off, I think she has enjoyed these the most:
first thing in the morning......
She practiced inside on the carpet for a couple days and then when she went outside with them, she did fantastic!  She will be having a lot of fun with them, better see where mine are hiding in the basement!

Little J took all the present unwrapping in, observing closely, so she will know what to do next month:


So a very happy birthday to Big J!  This girl amazes me all the time.  She is so loving, smart, funny, compassionate and spunky!  We love her so!  She is the best big sister and is so fantastic with Little J.
