In the recent past, this time of year has always been "Back to School" Season. Even though it has been a few years since I was in school, I still feel that "back to school" vibe, now and again. Today, the vibe has changed FOREVER! My little girl had her first day of school!Granted, it is only preschool, but it is really strange. I feel so OLD! I can't believe she has grown up so quickly. It was so fun to see her lay out her school clothes, and wear her back pack around the house all morning.
I thought I was ready. Preshcool, no big deal, right? Wrong! Dropping her off was sooooooooooo hard! I have been a stay at home mom her entire life thus far. The only day care she has ever been to, is a couple of hours at the Sports Academy Kids Klub (the gym). Now, and for the next 20 or more years, this time of year will be "Back to School" for my kids. I am sooooo OLD!
Now, although it was sad, (and a little life altering!) This has been a fantastic day. Dani loves school. She is so independent, and honestly, she is ready to break away and become the person she is going to be. I hope what I have taught her thus far will stick, because from now on, she will be learning from outside influences. She is such a neat little person, and this is going to make her even greater.
I also didn't mind the 3 hours alone (Holden went to Grandmas!) I got Holden's nursery painted! FINALLY! He won't be a baby much longer!
