A Long Time Coming

In January, Gracie went to school for the first time. It wasn't always her favorite place to be, but she loved the playground and being outside. Some where in March or April, they had one of those days that a mom should remember. I want to begin by telling you...EVERYDAY she went to school, I would get up, get her dressed, make sure her hair was cute and everything was perfect. Many of the teachers would stop and tell me that she was always dressed and looked so cute. But this particular day that we are speaking of, I didn't for whatever reason have the time or the energy to do all these things. So, I put a headband on her and we were off to school. Only as I was returning to school 2 and a half hours later, did I realize...IT WAS PICTURE DAY!!!! I could not believe it. THE ONLY DAY I didn't take the time to make sure every hair was in perfect place, she has pictures. Oh well. I had to put my pride aside. This was her first school picture! I had to get it. So, here it is. So cute and like school pictures, cheesy with the lockers, but she is cute just the same. Sorry Gracie. I will do better in the next 18 years!
