Because of the teacher's strike, Claire had to postpone her first day of school until Monday.  Since it was a short session, Mom took her to school, she met her teacher, and put her school supplies away.  On Tuesday she rode the school bus which picked her up at the street corner.

Waiting and ready in Mom's car on the very first day.

In her Kindergarten Classroom on the first day

Claire meets her teacher, Mrs. Young.

On the second day, Claire walks to the bus stop,

AND waits patiently for the bus.

She gives Mom a backward glance and gets on the bus.  She is so ready! 

Claire chooses a seat in the front row.

Jakey wants to go to Kindergarten too, as he waves goodbye to Claire.

Off to school.
