Autumn’s First Day of First Grade!

Oh boy, today is sure a tough day for this mommy! This morning I sent my first-born to her first day of first grade. I’m not really sure how I ended up at this day so quick. Aren’t your babies supposed to stay your babies forever? I keep telling Autumn to stop growing, but she won’t listen to me. It’s not fair!

Well, since I had to face this day no matter what, I made Autumn let me take pictures of her. She was not too happy about the whole “early morning” thing, but she humored me and gave me some poses. This first one she was kind of giving me the “fake princess model” pose. She doesn’t really ever do this unless I’m taking pictures of her. Crazy kid!

Then she decided to take off and run around the yard a few times. I’m thinking the sugar from the fruit smoothie she had for breakfast just started to kick in.

Then, of course, comes the “seriously mom, aren’t you done yet” look. I get this a lot. It’s also the “mom, you don’t know anything” look. I get that a lot too. Shouldn’t I have a few more years before the teenager attitude starts? Honestly, I think Autumn was born a teenager. She’s had the attitude since day one!
