How is it already the first day of school again? It feels like we just sent Evie to her first day of preschool. Now, here we are. She is going into Grade 1 this year and her little sister Addie is going to preschool for the first time. Both of my girls are going to school. How did that happen so quickly?
HAPPY FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
I don’t feel ready for this at all. I am not ready to pack lunch each evening so that it’s ready to go the next day. I am so thankful that my husband is able to take them to school each day since I miss the morning school routine. I know them mornings will become crazy and a bit of a whirlwind in no time as we settle into the routine of things again.
These girls are both so ready for school. Evie cannot wait to be back with her friends. Which is one thing I am praying about; that her core group of friends are with her in the same class. It’s actually something I emailed the principal about last year. Yes, I was that parent! I will bring it up again if I have to. Addie is just excited to be going to school at the same place Evie went to. Honestly, if she could have gone two years ago, she would have!

Love the idea of asking them questions to see how their answers change throughout the years! And the sweetest pictures!
Oh how sweet! I can’t even imagine what that day will be like when it comes for my son!
They’re so adorable! Having these questionnaires is a great idea! Love their first day of school sign too!
Fave color-Dory. I LOVE it! The sign is great!
I love that you did this for their first day of school! Now I wish I had done it too over the years. It must be fun to look back on.
I am so glad I made the effort to do this each year. It’s amazing to see them grow up every year
How fun!! I love reading kids answers when we ask them questions like this. You never know what they’ll come up with!
such cute pics and I love the questionnaire 🙂
What a sweet capsule for you and your girls to look back on. My fave is “I’m 2” *holds up five fingers. That made me lol. Also jealous of all those sunflowers 🌻
Omgosh támara! I am “that” parent aswell. It was so hard for Milo to establish friendships so it was so important for me that Milo be in a class with a couple of those he took too positively last year. What’s great is his school actually were the first ones to mention that this would be the best interest for his success. I love your girls answers and I love how much addie loves evie!
The interviews are so cute! Definitely something to save for the future 🙂
Awww I love this little interview! I’d love to do something like this with my own daughter as she grows 🙂
Oh my word. Ridiculously cute girls, love the sunflowers. We’re struggling with back to school as well. I don’t know where the time goes!
Such adorable girls! I love love love the back to school pictures. Wishing you all the best school year. My babies are starting 1st and 3rd grade this year. They grow way too fast!
I am sooo tired of most people’s first day of school sign pics. But these? These are ADORABLE and I want to borrow this idea!!!!!!!!!! You are such a creative mama!!!!
I was worried where you were going to go with that comment :p
