Today was Sydney's 1st day of 1st grade! All day school for the first time. Months of worry peaked last night after she picked out her back-to-school outfit, and we spent the drive home discussing what to do if confronted by a bully. I'm not sure what started this fear, but I'm glad she talked to me about it so I could help her to be prepared. There were also other worries, such as your best-friend finding a new friend she likes better than you. :(

She marched so confidently into the school you'd never know she was so nervous. Sydney hides emotion very well.

I could tell from the moment I saw her the day had been a SUCCESS!!! She had a big smile, a skip in her step, and happily reported that nobody made fun of her. Hooray!
This picture reminds me of Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, "and I love to dance"!

her outfit is so cute!! Her hair is SO long and it looks so pretty. :) Has she been made fun of before?
yes, first day of school last year some boys on the bus made fun of her socks :(
I had said it jokingly on my blog post last year. I can't believe that really happened! the only reason I know is b/c I overheard her telling a friend
She looked really cute! I'm glad sh ehad a great first day of school! It's always a relief when they come home happy! She looked like Janie from Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!
She is soooo gorgeous Deann! You know those little boys made fun of her last year cause she is so dang cute!! And stylish!!
I LOVE her outfit. I want one. I am glad it was a success. Bullying has been a issue with my kids but mainly on the bus when they are with the older kids. So glad they aren't doing the bus thing this year.
Deann, she sure is a beautiful little girl! Im so happy she had a good first day!
I'm SO glad she had a great first day! Phew. She has such a sensitive and sweet heart. Woohoo!
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun-- for sure!!! She is a doll!
I love her back to school outfit! It's so adorable. And it so looks like girls just want to have fun! I totally remember back to school jitters. I'm glad her day went well :)
I love her outfit! Hope she never has to face the problems she fears, but I love that she talks about them with you!
