    I used the same analogy when my son started kinder. It is a beautiful thing when a mother and father can give their child the confidence to grow up.
    With a big hug and a little Kleneex I say "Nice work!!!!"

    You’ve done an excellent job Mother Bird. Five gold stars. (And I noticed that you took a picture that didn’t show the Hack Job Bangs. Add five more stars for cleverness.)

    Sweet picture. It doesn’t appear that she’s being dragged off…not too hard anyway. I noticed the shovel was no where to be found. Some best friend.
    Enjoying the stories greatly.

    I remember my daughter’s first day of preschool, some 26 years ago. She was so confident and well adjusted that preschool was just a more fun extension of home. Eager to learn and happy to teach the sibs everything that she was taught. One incident I remember well was the magazines that were passed out for an art project and my daughter spent her time clipping coupons for her mom—–you do me proud Amy. I know that Ella will (eventually) fit right in just like you did! xoxo Mom
