Happy First Day of School, Madison

August 23, 2010

This morning, Madison headed back for her first day of preschool. She was excited about going. I made her a new dress for the big day and I was so tickled that it was finished on Saturday instead of me staying up the night before school started. I used some vintage looking dog fabric for her since she loves every dog she sees. I needed to have her take her backpack off and turn her so she wasn’t squinting in the sun. I took the pictures with my phone since I didn’t realize my camera battery was completely dead.

She decided to accessorize her new dress with a great big red flower in her hair and a red and white beaded bracelet. She put it on in the car. Apparently, Katelyn left it behind so Madison decided that meant that Katelyn wanted Madison to wear it to school.

The big flower helps disguise the haircut she gave herself last week. She has a half a set of short bangs on the right side of her head.

Good thing Madison was more prepared about going back to school than me. She is excited about her new teacher and loved the first day. She colored, played on the playground, sang songs and had lunch. Sounds like a perfect day at preschool.

I will charge my battery and get some better pictures of the dress.

I’m so happy that Madison is looking forward to going back to school tomorrow.
