Mackenzie's First Day of 1st Grade

I should have posted this on Monday but we got a new camera to take with us to China and I have been trying to figure out how to use it. Hopefully I will figure out how to post some pics today! Mackenzie started 1st grade on Monday and has been adjusting ever since. She seems to like it. We got to meet her teacher last week and she likes her a lot. Her teacher's name is Ms. Quinlan and she is new and recently graduated from college. I think Mackenzie will have a fun year. She has lots of new kids in her class. So far her favorite subjects are lunch and recess..hmmm. She did have one meltdown when I came in to volunteer at lunch. Apparently the lunch I packed her wasn't quite as good as what the school was offering for hot lunch. I am sure she will outgrow this love for cafeteria food but for now I am indulging it. I equate cafeteria food to hospital food...and the only food I used to order when I worked at the hospital was french fries. They were pretty good. But I guess at 2:30 in the morning anything would be good. Anyway, she seems to like school and for now is riding the bus both to and from school. Not sure how long that will last as she is on the bus for a while in the morning and could sleep in a whole 40 minutes longer if I took her. We'll see what she ends up wanting to do as the weeks and months move along. Here are some pics of her 1st day of 1st grade!
