Bossy has always mourned her kids’ first day of school because, bottom line, her son and daughter are super fun to hang around and no trouble at all.
Click here to see Bossy’s daughter on the first day of school last year. Bossy thinks her face really matured in a year.
I have always dreaded the first day of school. I hate being on someone else’s schedule; I love summer and the notion that the day belongs to us and no one else — and I’m like Bossy: I think my urchins are great fun to be around. I couldn’t ask for better companions.
So I’m a little mopey today.
She is so growing up into a teenager. Of course, it’s a cruel joke of nature that daughters generally hit puberty about the same time as mothers hit menopause. Especially for those of us who get trapped in the middle.
I’m sad one of them went back. We had a good summer today, snuggled a lot, took naps together, read together. It was nice having him as my constant companion!
I missed last years picture…that is a classic..dread and excitement.
This year looks like our baby has it all together.
What a doll.
I can understand why you are sad. Her smile must brighten every room she enters.
yeppers, you are correct!
I hope bossy’s daughter has a good first day AND a good year!
—-and she looks SO MUCH more optimistic!!!
I’ve been noticing that too. The cutie.
I agree with #8
She’s growing up Bossy! And turning into a rockstar too!
What a fabulous backpack ! Have a super duper school year, Bossy’s Daughter
She looks so grown up, and full of confidence!
LOVE the headband! She is so hip.
Enjoy school Bossy’s daughter!
Simply. Beautiful. Have a fantastic first day, Bossy’s delightful daughter!
So grown up! Hope Bossy’s Daughter has a great first day back.
Beautiful. Confident. Ready to rock the new year!
Have a great one, Bossy’s daughter.
She’s thriving! I was just comparing my kids’ first-day-of-school pics from this year and last. Damn, they grow up too quickly.
Bossy’s daughter sticks with the classic white t and jeans for first day of school. Good choice, Junior Bossy!
She looks just like you! How funny…never noticed that before.
Slight resemblance to Katie Holme, but prettier and not trappped in Cruise-land. Am I the only one thought this?
