Lauren's 1st Day of Kindergarten

Today, September 6, 2012, Lauren started her first day of Kindergarten at Buckley Country Day School in Roslyn, NY.

Something noticeable happened to Lauren when she turned 5 years old.  Her language became mature, her emotions deepened, and her intellect expanded.  She was truly transitioning from Toddler to Big Kid.  Drop-off today was a bit surreal.  Was I really dressing Lauren in a uniform?  No more sneakers?  No more pants?  No more accompanying her to the classroom?  Yes to all of these questions! 

Though we pay nearly $25,000 in property taxes per year, Tae and I made the decision to send our girls to an independent school.  We fell in love with Buckley on our very first visit.  We love the teachers, administrators, curriculum, environment, and the sense of community.  Our hope for Lauren and Elizabeth is for them to develop a love of learning, excelling, connecting, appreciating, and discovering.  We are so proud of them and know they will have an extraordinary year!
