Still smiling when we got into the truck.
Got to school, and the smile started disappearing. We could tell she was getting a little timid not knowing what to expect.
Got a little more so when we dropped her off outside her classroom.
It was really quiet at lunch with only two kids. Pretty strange feeling, but I know it will get worse (better?) as all the kids get into school.
Dawna was kind of freaking out waiting for the bus. She was hoping Kiera didn't miss the bus or somehow get overlooked. There was no problem. The bus arrived. Kiera was on it, but she had fallen asleep on the way home. Look closely, and you can see she isn't too happy here.
Dawna was obviously relieved.
We decided to celebrate and take Kiera out on her first day of school. Fortunately, we had been given a gift certificate, and that made the trip cost effective. Kiera really didn't talk much or have anything to say until she had drank a couple of cups of juice and eaten a salad and some rolls. Once the blood sugar was back up and she was fully hydrated, she started bouncing off the walls again. She didn't have must to tell about her classroom experience, but she did inform us that as the bus drove along, a branch hit inside the open windows.
"It was cool," Kiera said.
At least she's looking forward to school tomorrow, but she's trying to negotiate out of riding the bus.
