it came and went...

harper's big day went off without too much emotional turmoil. i packed her lunch, braided her hair, and made sure she had about 30 boxes of tissues. she was as ready as she ever could be.
once we arrived at the school she stayed about 5 feet in front of me so i was unaware of the anxiousness in her own face until we took this picture. i can tell that she is still a bit nervous, but all that quickly faded as we walked in to the classroom.her teacher had placed books at every chair so that the kids could come in and sit quietly while they wait for the class to begin. give harper a book and she is a happy kid. so, happily she sat.

i also managed to snag a picture of harper and her cubby-mate, emma. she's going to have so many friends!
