First and Last days of Kindergarten

First day 

Last day

Hey!  Zoe's in the same shirt!  She looks about the same, but it looks like Ethan grew a bit, doesn't it?  Or maybe its just the giraffe neck he's working in the second.  You can tell in the pictures just what a sweet brother he is to Zoe.  Love them.

Zoe's First Dance!

Yesterday was such a great day!  Jeff and I took off from work to meet Zoe at her first dance!  Sprayberry high school hosted it for special needs kids.  I didn't know what to expect, but it was so much fun, and Zoe had a blast!  Forgive the blurry pictures, but you'll get the idea.

As the kids got off the bus, they were greeted by cheering students.

This was our view when we first walked in.  Do you see a little blue and purple dressed girl looking at us?

Here.  I'll crop it for you. 

When she realized it was us!

Dance partner #2.

This guy was so sweet with her.

More dancing.

Patty Cake counts as dancing.

And then this group found her and this they were so fantastic!

What?  Time to Go?

There are precious few places where Zoe is allowed to be completely herself in a safe and fun environment.  We spend so much time saying, "Stay here."  "Don't touch", etc.  This was awesome for her, and I'm grateful to the students and staff of Sprayberry.
