I love her at this age and know she will change and grow and do well, but the first day of Elementary school feels like the end of a chapter in our lives of her being this little "wee thing". I wanted to capture her on her first day, so we did the obligatory sitting-on-the-doorstep photo and I snapped some on our walk to school.
That same day in the evening we stole down to J’s Landing, an old Pennsylvania Barn and stables - my new favorite place for photos. With the promise of frog catching after 30 minutes of photos, you will see her holding a mason jar with a twinkle in her eye. She caught 7 frogs that night, had the best day ever in Kindergarten and had her family as company on her first journey to school.

I did shed a tear that day, I won't lie |
She lit up the minute she started to read. |
Her three favorite books! |
