First Day of School


My goodness, our baby is growing up. . .off to school for the first time.  There were tears in mommy and daddy's eyes as we waved goodbye to Rania as she got on the big bus with her siblings.  Rania was a bit hesitant about her uniform not feeling right, but with some chocolate strawberries (nothing like a healthy snack) a bribe, she was all excited to head off to school. 



It seems like quite the sea change -- with all our kids in school; granted, only a half day for Rania, but still. . . .

Just mommy and daddy had tears in their eyes. Big smiles from Rania as they departed. The bus, indeed has indoor roller coasters and interactive 3-D games (educational, of course), as well as dramatic dance interpreters who help you understand your surroundings.
