First day of 2nd grade!

Today was Libby's first day of 2nd grade. She told me all summer that she was excited about starting a new school and meeting new friends. Well, the time actually came this morning and she was a little bundle of nerves. I could barely get her to crack a smile. I got her up and she got ready and had breakfast. Here she is at breakfast at least giving me a silly smile...
Before we left to head to school she asked if she could take some "friends" so she grabbed two of her favorites to make her feel better on the way to school...
We got to her classroom and she wouldn't look up at anyone...she just sat at her desk with her head down looking so sad.
I wish I had a magic wand that I could wave over her and make her not be shy! Her teacher emailed me after school that Libby did participate in class but at recess she was still shy and hung around the teacher the entire time of recess. :-( Hopefully in the next few days she'll start making friends because I hate seeing her so sad!! Keep your fingers crossed for her!

After I picked her up we came home and had dinner and then we had brownies that Ryan made. Brownies make everything better, right?? :-) We played outside for a while and then it was time for a bath and bed and that was our day.
