First Day of Second Grade

So exciting to be in 2nd Grade.  She is very excited about her teacher and her classmates.  She got a few friends she was in class with from last year, some she has not been in class with for a few years and some she only knew from the playground. Second Grade brings alot more independence in the classroom and well, in the cafeteria.  Emerson is all talk about the Cafeteria and what she eats and what she can choose from...hot lunch, make your own sandwich, salad bar or the soup bar. We will have to monitor this "self-serve" lunch process for sure.  I am getting the impression that all she helps herself to at the salad bar are the croutons and the Soup Bar is only good for the crackers.  I will say she has mentioned trying some soup and making a salad, but maybe just enough to get what she really wants, carbs! 

 

Denny and I allowed her to choose her own tennis shoes this year.  It took ALOT of restraint on our part. The shoes are very her and she was so excited to get them.  FYI, she is only allowed to wear them to school with her uniform.
