First Day Jitters

...it's 8:50am. Bekah has now been at her first day of school for about 55 minutes. Time is going by soooo slow. She gets out at 10:30-which I thought was a short school day, but it seems so long to be away from my baby girl!
She was so excited this morning. She had a great attitude, especially for being woken up at 6:30! I took a couple pics of her on the front porch and she was being so silly-just posing and being cute. I got to the school and all the high school students were waiting to help the kids inside. Bekah clinged to my hand and wanted me to bring her in, (and I wanted to bring her in too, so I wasn't pushing the issue in the least!). We went inside and the students helped her find her name tag and put it in the slot and then they brought her into the playroom, she looked scared-she was the first kid there, so I don't blame her.
I left feeling a little uneasy about it, hoping she wasn't in there crying. When I got to my car, I saw the Youngs pulling up with Taylor, I pulled around, and decided to go in with them to check on Bekah and make sure she was having fun. I had nothing to worry about. She was playing with blocks and having a great old time, talking to a high school student. I had her show me her cubby, (Taylor was hiding in hers by that point-a little overwhelmed for a minute, she did get up and start playing by the time I left though) and then Bekah went back to playing with blocks and barely gave me a second look when I said goodbye. Now if I can just get over MY first day jitters! I can't wait to go pick her up and see how her first day was!
