From The Vicksburg Post:
WOW
St. Francis Xavier Elementary teachers, dressed as characters from “Wizard of Oz,” greet students as they arrived this morning for the first day of school. Speaking with third-grader Mae Spangler, the daughter of Stephen and Lucy Spangler of Vicksburg, are Mindy Giambrone, as the scarecrow, left, and Caroline Gatling, as the Tin Man. Principal Jennifer Henry said the teachers were trying to “wow” the students.
Stop the Press! May Spangler is in first grade!
And, lucky for us
The Vicksburg Post captured the moment.
They did, however, spell her name wrong and mistakenly say she is entering THIRD grade. She's already growing up fast enough!
Here is M-A-Y:
We spent some quality time with the first-grader this weekend while Aunt Cookie (aka Katherine) and Grandmama were in town. We watched Mary Poppins and had a slumber party at our house:
When May learned school would be starting this week, she said, "I think I want to break up with school!" She also demonstrated her need to stay in school when we dined at The Ware House, where, upon receiving her menu, she exclaimed, "I can't read!"
She's a funny girl. And, she seems to just get funnier as time flies by.
Six and Sassy!
She's also a superhero in her spare time.
