What a champ!

Yesterday was Jo's first day at her new school - 5 day a week, morning 4k.
For her first day I drove her there, walked her in to meet her teacher and helped her find her locker (goodbye cubbies, hello lockers!) I also picked her up at the end of the day.

Today, we agreed she could try taking the bus. Her teacher fastened a red label on her backpack to ensure she would make her transfer. That's right, my four year old daughter is not only riding a bus solo, but getting off one bus and transfering to a second bus!
This morning Jo woke me up 30 min early to make sure she didn't miss her school bus debut. You could say she was just a little excited:





And there she is, stepping off the school bus like this is what she was born to do. I'm amazed and SO PROUD. Then again, I am her mother.
