It's hard to believe that Kate actually had her 1st day of kindergarten yesterday. I remember when she was a tiny baby weighing less than 8 lbs...seems like just yesterday! Although nervous about meeting new friends and going to an unfamiliar school, she ended up having a great day! She already made two friends that she ate, played, and rested with during the day. She also informed us that her favorite part of the day was the cafeteria. Of the 6 kids that were there (staggered entry), 3 chose cafeteria and 3 chose gym as their favorite activity. I guess the academics kicks in in the later years.
Here's hoping yesterday was a sign of the year ahead!
The Friday before the 4th our family went blueberry picking for the first time. We had taken the girls strawberry picking on Mother's Day, which was a success, so we decide to try a new fruit. The girls were instructed ahead of time to only pick the blue ones and to try and get them as big as possible. Between the four us, we picked 4 pints. Considering we all love blueberries, they didn't remain in the refrigerator very long!
