First Day of School

Great googlymoogly. Today is the first day of school for my nieces and they are now officially 2nd- and 5th-graders. Good. Grief. My sister sent along some photos of the girls to mark the occasion and, just for fun, sent photos of the girls from the first day of school back in 2007. At that time, Sarah (the eldest) was entering 2nd grade and Claudia was still in preschool. Check it out:

Here are the girls in '07:And here they are now:
W O W ! The comparison really drives it home - the girls are so mature now! Crazy. I can't believe I have nieces that are so... big. I still remember when I gave little 1-year-old Sarah a bath in my apartment at UCLA. And now she's a tween! Dang. Time is flying! I feel old.
