Well, we’ve arrived. The first day of school for Micah. She was so excited when we arrived at the preschool, never even looking back after she walked through the gate. She’s going to have lots of fun, and I’ve enjoyed a quiet morning at home to get some work done.

Before we left this morning, I took the obligatory first day of school photos. She was quite proud of her backpack and kept turning around for me to get a picture of it, so I have lots of pictures of her back and only a couple of pictures of her face.

Either way, I’m glad to have captured the memories. She’s soaking up things like a sponge these days, and preschool will be a structured learning environment for her. She’s pointing out colors and counting, and I’m continually amazed by how quickly she’s picking things up. She’s a big girl now.

A big girl who was ready to stop taking pictures and climb in the car.

Hope you’re all having a good day. In a bit, I’ll head out to pick my little lady up, but until then, I’ll enjoy the quietness of the house.

Until next time, grace and peace.
