Great photos, Monica. Marissa looks way too happy to be going to school. I'm glad she enjoyed her first day.
Thinking back who-knows-how-many-years.... I can't imagine what it would have been like going off to kindergarden my first day on a bus.

I'm pretty sure I was one of those clingy kids who wouldn't leave my mom's leg. Quite sure there was lots of crying as well... Anyhow, kudos to your daughter for heading off like a champ.
