First Day of School

We've lost our camera in the abyss that is our home. So sadly I wasn't able to take a picture of our first day of school.

The girls started 3 days a week at the JCC by our house. The last time I tried to send them was last year, it was a different J, and it was a nightmare. After 3 disastrous weeks, I pulled them out and begged my neighbor to watch them.

This time has been different. We bought DORA backpacks that the girls carry in every day. They still cry when I leave but they calm down pretty quickly (I duck in the hallway until I hear that they have stopped.) They are also eating and sleeping and playing - which they didn't do last year.

Yesterday was their second day and when I came to pick them up Ilana said, "Look mommy, this is Eden" and she pointed to a girl in the class. Then Orli said "Mommy! Potty now!"

I'm really proud of my big girls.
