Bella's First Day of School...

Bella starts her first day of school today. She and Grace boarded the bus bright and early this morning at 7:30 a.m. Bella was sooooo excited; she kept saying over and over "Bella, Bum?" (translation: Bella, Bus?) while pointing to her chest.

My little peanut starting school....sigh....I am going to miss my little shadow!
