A Big Day!

Today, I sent my baby girl off to preschool. She has been counting down the days until she could go for weeks.

When we got there, she went right to her class and started playing with toys immediately. I did get her to pose for 1 picture, but had to beg for a kiss. She said, "Are you dropping me off?" and I said, "Yep! I'll see you later. Have a great day. I love you!" and I walked right out. She didn't even look my way.



I have mixed emotions about her reaching this big milestone. This will be so good for her to get out of the house for a couple days to have fun and be able to make friends and get used to the school routine. Also, I will have some much needed time to myself. I can't tell you how excited I am about that! While I'm sad to see my baby growing up, I'm also excited about the way our family's life is changing as our children grow up. I've been a mom for 9 years now, and I've cherished every moment I've had with them as they've been little. But, in a way, I'm ready for them to grow up and be more independent.

Love you baby girl, hope your first day of school is GREAT!!
