Here's Mallory on her first day of first grade:
Here she is on her last day of first grade:
The finger signifies that she's done with grade one, as she put it.
The uniform that was too short for her on the first day of school was replaced with her current uniform...which became too short for her in, oh, about December, but which I forced her to continue to wear for the rest of the year because those things are expensive and I didn't want to buy another one until I absolutely had to. Clearly I need to buy uniforms two sizes two big at the first of the year, so that there's a chance they'll continue to fit until the end of the year. Sigh.
Here's Phoebe, who decided to be a princess this morning:
"I'm closing my eyes because I'm happy," she explained.
And here are some entries from Mallory's journal. I find it funny that she can spell weekend correctly, but apparently just chooses not to. Most of these entries are true, but there are a few egregious lies, which I leave to you to sort out.
