Muffin Tin Monday & First Day of 1st grade

Today was Lu's first day of FIRST grade, I honestly don't think dropping your kids off gets any easier. So this morning I wanted to make her a "Special" breakfast. In my family it is tradition to make breakfast on special days, I remember as as child growing up, making breakfast for my mom on her birthday and vise versa, I figured today was a special day so why not... I also wanted to incorperate MTM in there, thinking up something for the theme was hard ... People/Faces ... Then it dawned on me... She could make a person outta what I cook!Top Row: Banana Slice Faces, Purple Pancake clothes, milk
Bottom Row: Curly Egg Hair, Raisin eyes, and Chesse slice limbs (arms&legs)
I was so happy because she was in a FANTASTIC mood when I showed here the MTM
And she made a CUTE little person! She even broke the cheese up so her person could have hands and feet, how cute is that. My favorite part was when she got to school and saw a little girl that was in her class last year she said "Did you know today was Muffin Tin Monday and I made a person, my mommy even made my pancake skirt purple isn't that cool? Does your mommy fix you Muffin Tin Monday?" LOL that little girls mom that was standing next to her child, was looking at me like I was crazy ... but thats ok!
Just thought I'd show you guys a few cute pics ... I always try to get pictures on her first day!
Later this week I will have to post a pic from both years, how VASTLY they change!

  12. Bless your heart. This is so sweet--and I agree with you--dropping them off never gets any easier. It got harder for me. This is our first year of homeschool and I am very thankful for it. I hope her first day was good for both of you!!
