Vivian's first day of school! New outfit, a new backpack, a new lunchbox-- and she was ready! All four of us took her to the auditorium at Franklin where the principal welcomed us. Then we were called to her classroom. Vivian marched right in holding Sadie Goodman's hand. Afterward you said you had a great day. I feel like you were made for school and this is going to be so great for you! You had a piano lesson with Adam and then you & daddy watched some TV while Mommy & Sabine went to get Honey-man and Omi. They came back and we all had pizza. Sabine really wanted a cupcake but we told her she had to have pizza first and she ate a whole slice-- and then 1/3 of a cupcake. Sabine said, "Mommy sitting, Vivi sitting, Daddy sitting..." just like at dinner with the Crookses the other night. Vivian is excited for her next day of school, too. Unfortunately I have to go out of town next week for work and I will miss you both!
