Happy Apple!

Elsie started 3-year-old preschool at Happy Apple on Monday.  She will be going 5 days per week.  They don't have a 5-day class for 3-year-olds so she gets to be two different apples: red on M, W, F and purple on T, Thurs.  Her Red Apple teacher is Mrs. Galluccio, who also taught Mary Grace, and her Purple Apple teacher is Mrs. Blansett, our next door neighbor (and Blake's momma).
She was so excited to start school and had a wonderful first two days.  Here are some photos from Open House and from her first days:

With her self portrait.  Notice the Mickey ears!

Lots of boys in her class!

We went out for pizza at Ops with the Bakers after Open House.

We are so blessed to be part of such a wonderful little school.  There were so many parents and grandparents on the lawn outside of the church on the first day of school.  Some even wore the same color as their apple!  All had cameras and everyone was so excited to be there.  There is so much love surrounding that school.  I truly love this little place and am proud that it is a ministry of my church.
