Middle School BEGINS!

OK, world -- Simone Dotson has entered middle school. Today.  There was no avoiding it.  No matter how much I want to keep her little, she's intent on growing up.  

Simone was so excited.  We went to open house last night when she got a chance to test her locker and pick up her schedule, get a few selfies, and sign the new year bulletin board.  Then the big day!




First day.  All ready to head to 6th grade!!


 Her last official act of summer break was to finish up her Learn to Compete skating camp.  I went to watch her "compete" on Wednesday afternoon.  She did a great job and designed her own dress. I can't get the video of her program to upload, but here are a couple of stills.

Warm up.



Sigh... I'm sure this year will bring tons of change and excitement. And I'm not sure if it will be harder on her or us, but we're about to find out!
