Here she is on her first day of school. I can't get over how well she did. She went right in with no tears. A little bit of wondering but went right about her day. At the end of the day, she is usually on the playground. I tried to get to her school a little early today but she was in the bathroom!!! I wanted to take pictures of her on those monkey bars--she's doing them and turning around when she gets to the end...maybe I should get her into gymnastics;) Hopefully as the end of the week approaches, I will be able to catch her. She goes three mornings a week. She does have her favorite ladybug backpack which I will also try to get a photo of. She received it from her cousin Catherine who is in big kid school now(Kindergarten) and needs a larger backpack. The photo in pink is JiaLi on day2--willing to go back:)
Had to throw one in of the boys:) Edward, who is 6, lost his first tooth on Friday.
We were hoping to be into the adoption-related class that I talked about a few posts ago and we never heard. I was getting nervous that we did something wrong(like forgot to submit something). Finally we called and it turns out they did not have enough people for the class and are holding it in October. I pray we get into it...this waiting thing over a class which seems so doable is driving me crazy. I know I shouldn't complain but I just want to take some more steps...
On a different note, my question is related to the Moon Festival which is right around the corner. With JiaLi in school now, I wanted to go in with a book/activity for her class. I was wondering if you had a book to recommend that kids enjoy related to the Moon Festival to share. As some may remember, her first year home, her birthday fell on the Moon Festival and it's now just one of those days that I want to make sure we celebrate:) Thank you in advance for sharing!!

I can't believe she can do the monkey bars by herself!!! Amazing!!!!
Missing teeth are so so adorable!
I am so glad Jia Li is enjoying school. So wonderful to hear.
Love his toothless smile:)
I am praying you get into the next round of classes you were speaking of before.
