The Ballerina goes to School

This past week marked a new milstone for the Shirley family. Samantha started preschool. Now only the Bean is left. Samantha was excited about her first day of class. She dressed in her pink dress and had Kate 'flip' her hair. She also had Kate run down and buy her a backpack (because preschoolers have a lot of homework...).

Many of the parents who were dropping kids off for the first day of school were crying. Kate's were tears of joy. Many of the kids were crying about being left at a stranger's house for preschool, but in typical Shirley fashion, Samantha hardly even noticed when Kate left.

And in case you are wondering what is on Samantha's wrist, no, she's not diabetic. It is her ride admission band from Circus Circus (see the Las Vegas post from 3 weeks ago). We figure it will fall apart one day...
