First day of (pre-)school

Here's Ellie, hair all slicked down, backpack on her back, on her way
to preschool. No truth to the rumor that Mama combed Ellie's hair down
with her own free-flowing tears.

Ellie did great -- Mama, not so much. We need to get Mama used to
Ellie socializing outside her immediate reach...she's making progress.
