Soon after Gibbs left the McGee family was leaving. Nadia was wearing her favorite pair of jeans and her favorite shirt which has Tinkerbelle on it and is green. Abby had put Nadia's long brown hair into a green headband. They had to get Nadia to school so they could go get a surprise by the time she comes home.
Abby and Tim walk Nadia up to her classroom so they could meet her teacher. Her name is Ms. Viana and there are 23 students including Nadia. As they walked in Abby held Nadia close wanting to make sure the teacher was safe for her daughter.
"Hi you must be Mr. and Mrs. McGee, correct?" Ms. Viana asked. Abby and Tim nodded their heads as Nadia moved closer to her mother. Ms. Viana stood almost as tall as Abby and had Brow eyes and blonde hair. "That must make you Nadia." She said getting down to Nadia's height.
"Yes ma'am," Nadia said trying to be polite.
"Ok, let me show you were you will be sitting," Ms. Viana said leading the McGee's to Nadia's chair. There were six square tables each having four chairs. Nadia's chair was near the door.
After being shown were her daughter sat and after meeting her teacher, Abby let go of her daughters hand and gave her a hug, "Bye Nadia, be good today and there will be a surprise when you get home today."
"Bye princess," Tim said hugging his little girl. Then Tim and Abby left.
As they left the building Abby was still feeling nervous. "You think she will be ok. This is big change for her. She had to switch schools. Chances are she might not know anyone. What if no one likes her?" Abby said remembering that last year Nadia went to a private school for kindergarten the year before.
"Don't worry Abby, she isn't in middle school. Making friends will be easy for her." Tim said as they got into the car. Last year Nadia wouldn't talk and people thought she was deaf until about halfway through the first month when she finally did start talking.
"Can we go get the surprise now?" Abby asked looking over to her husband.
"Yeah, we can go now," Tim said starting the car and driving away from the school.

Back in the classroom more parents stopped by to drop of their kids. Nadia's group had two boys and two girls, like most of the groups. The other girls name is Jayden and she has blonde hair and blue eyes. She was the smallest in the group. Nadia was only about half an inch taller. The boys were identical twins and their names are Bryce and Blake. They are an inch taller than Nadia and have brown eyes and very light brown hair.
Nadia tried to block out the sounds of the kids trying to talk to her and waited for the bell to ring so school would start.
"Class," Ms. Viana said, "I think we should get to know each other so today I am going to call on everyone. I will go first. My name is Ms. Viana, my favorite color is blue and my favorite holiday is Christmas because you spend time with family. Annabelle you next."
Annabelle went to tell the class about herself then Ms. Viana called on someone else. It went like this until the last person. "Nadia, your turn to tell us about you. Remember full name, favorite color, favorite holiday and why, and anything else you may want to add."
Nadia stood up. "My name is Nadia Marie McGee, my favorite color is green, and my favorite holiday is Halloween because I dress like a vampire just like my mommy! My favorite movie is The Nightmare Before Christmas!" After she was done she sat back down and waited for Ms. Viana to talk again.
"Ok, thank Nadia. Tonight I want everyone to draw their family and tomorrow we will talk about our families." Ms. Viana said Just as The bell for the end of the school day rang.
Nadia left the classroom just as everyone else had and found her mom waiting for her at the front. She ran up to Abby. "Mommy, I missed you!" She said as Abby picked her up. She looked for her dad. "Mommy, where's Daddy?"
"I missed you to princess," Abby said putting her down and talking her hand to walk her to their car, "Daddy is at home with the surprise we got today."
"What did you get?" Nadia asked as her mom put her in the car. Abby just laughed and told her she would have to wait.
