Our little longhorn

Eliza started a new school last week. She finally got a spot at the school next door to my office. So now every morning we commute together. She loves my parking garage, the glass elevator, loves waiting for the Walk sign at the crosswalk and loves seeing all the UT students with their backpacks. She's quite proud of her Dora backpack (really a lunch box) and likes that she's a "student", like everyone else on campus. The first morning every person we passed she asked, "Who is that, Mama?" and I said "a UT student." Now she says "Hook 'em horns, students!" when we pass everyone on our walk. I'm quite certain they have no idea what she's saying, but it's adorable. My office is next to the UT Tower, so every time she hears the tower clock chiming, she says "I hear your office singing!"
