Kindergarten! (and no, I did not cry)

The requisite backpack and lunch bag photo. Lily's black and white ensemble is much more sophisticated than my kindergarten first-day outfit, which included a Ronald McDonald dress complete with red and white stripes on the sleeves. Must have been the '70s.

No, there wasn't a picket line at her school. They had everyone line up by class. Controlled chaos at best.

Reunited...

In we go!

Let me set the scene:

Gabe: Lily, how old are you now?
Lily: Five.
Gabe: Ah, just like me.
Lily: Yeah, but I'm taller.
Gabe: Let's see.

Getting right to work.

The artist in her element. It's good to be back!
