Big Day for Gracie

When I picked the girls up from school yesterday they were standing there together holding hands waiting for me. It was one of the sweetest things I have ever seen.  Hayden is trying to take very good care of Gracie, but I think Gracie will be just fine. One of the teachers that gets them out of the car in the mornings told Mimi that Gracie is a little more assertive than Hayden. She said she was trying to help Gracie out of the car and with her book bag and Gracie pretty much said no she didn't need help. The teacher said Hayden would have accepted the help rather than saying she didn't need it. It kind if surprised me but Gracie does tell all right now and Hayden is speaking up a little more too.

Gracie couldn't wait to tell me about her day...she was the happiest little girl in the world!  Why?  Because she got to go to the library and check out her first book!!!  She picked out a Junie B Jones chapter book because she knew Hayden would like it. How sweet is that?  I love this little girl so much. I told her that Hayden got to get her own book so she could pick out whatever she wanted to next week.  She also went to Bible and she didn't eat a lot of her lunch because she had goldfish for a snack. Oh and she fell asleep at nap time.

After Gracie was so excited, Hayden did share a few things. She had a very busy day and they were out of the classroom a lot. Hey, I have to take what I get from her!!!  At least she is telling me more than in the past.

I think we at off to a great year!
