Little Miss Kindergarten


Mabel's elementary school is exactly one block from our house.
So we decided to walk her to school today.
Here's the thing: Her school starts at 12:10.
Do you know how hot it is at that time?

It's really hot.

It was a bad idea.
Mabel and Oliver were bright red and dripping in sweat by the time we arrived.
We have now decided that we will be driving until October when it starts to cool off.

  13. Wow, I didn't realize all these bloggers would notice her shoes. She does pull them off nicely. I'm hoping that once it gets colder she'll wear them with jeans... its a stretch, I know.

  16. Oh she looks so cute! Did she love it? How did you and Oliver do? I had some tears when Bella started kindergarten but 1st grade was much easier :)
    And it's too hot for me to check the mail at 12:10! You were ambitious!
