1st-day-of-1st-grade

Dora the Explorer? Hello Kitty?
that would be a Powerpuff Girl backpack
Nice choice! Mine's Blue's Clues this year. :D
1st-day-of-1st-grade by swardraws.
Today was Hollace's first day of first grade at a new school. I am sure she was a little nervous but this is the face of a kid who hates her picture taken, she warned me.

not only is there a look of disgust, but she's standing, palms open and toward the viewer, as if in supplication. help me, someone, please.

i feel for her, but i'm sure she came home talking about a brand new best friend, eh?
