Abbie goes to "big girl" school

On August 26th Abbie started Kindergarten! My goodness where has the time gone? She made the cut off date by two days-this year you had to be 5 years old by October 16th to start school. Abbie is most likely the youngest out of all 4 Kindergarten classes at Maiden Elementary, but one things for sure she's one of the smartest. She has made a lot of friends in her class. I hear about Sophie, Rosie, Casey, Cheyenne and Rachel almost everyday. She has learned so much! She told me last week that an author writes book and an illustrator draws pictures for the books. Her 9 week progress report was really good and at the parent/teacher conference her teacher Mrs. Hayes and assistant teacher Mrs. Killian praised her performance. She has awesome teachers by the way!! I almost forgot-no I did not cry when Michael and I left her. I have been leaving her at daycare since she was 6 months old so I think of school as childcare with out the "car payment".
