This year Emma went to third grade and Julia first. I was worried about Julia because she is such a mommy's girl and I was nervous about her being gone all day. I was also sad to let her go! The night before I read them a story and they were both crying when I was done reading it! I read them the "Kissing Hand." I had no idea it would make them sad! Julia was worried someone would give her a black eye and she also climbed into bed with us that night.
She hardly touched her breakfast and had one melt down about her backpack before school. When we got to school it took some coaxing to get her into her classroom but once she sat at her desk and saw some familiar faces she was just fine. When she got home from school she gave me a big hug and talked my ear off about her day. What a relief! They both had a great day! Back to School is a fun time!

What cute pictures. I feel a part of the special day just be reading about all the "real" things that happened like melt downs, etc. Thanks for sharing the pictures and notes. Wish I could have been there. See you in a few days. Love, Grandma Tomlinson

Hi, Jackie! This is Olga, Tom's wife. I wanted to thank you for beautiful dress you sent for my Sophia. I should tell you that my oldes daughter Nina put it on right away as soon as she saw it. She is so fond of hats.
Your girls are beautiful! Congradulation to Julia on starting firth grade!
They both look so adorable! My boys were nothing but excited to get back to school. Dylan didn't have a problem. Does that mean I'm a bad mom? LOL I'm glad your girls made it through. Good luck this year!
The girls look so cute Jackie, back to school all ready. I'm glad to hear Julia had a great time in her class.
I love their outfits! That is so sweet that they cried at that book. I don't think my kids would EVER cry. Hmmmm wonder why I have kids who can't show emotion? LOL
I'm glad she had a good day! yay!
Emma's hair is so cute. I love it short like that.
You gotta love Back To School and most kids really do. Get the newness over and it gives them something to do and to be with a lot of friends. Hope Julia is settling in!
