My babygirl is a big kindergarten student. We've been excited. We've looked forward and all of a sudden it was the day.
As my sleepy head woke up this morning it was so cute, she stumbled down the hall with groggy eyes. (her mother's child). I couldn't help but smile. We made her lunch as she sat on the kitchen counter. She refused anything to eat for breakfast. (Again, her mother's child). She had the biggest smile. We quickly got her dressed. As we went through our new morning routine I thought back on all her "baby" days. I remember when this day seemed so far away. And today we live it.
We got to school a few minutes early and had to wait in the cafeteria, that was torture for her. As the bell rang, we then made our way to her ladybug classroom.
She walked along with daddy and baby sissy a little ahead of me. I smiled. I didn't cry! This is going to be such a fun adventure for her.
We made it to her classroom and tucked her things away in her cubby.
Found her seat.
We didn't linger long. A little pep talk and a kiss goodbye. This is when baby sissy lost it. She was pitiful and cried as we left D there as we walked out.
and one last glance..... my sweet girl.
Its 9:37 and baby sissy is sleeping soundly. We can't wait to pick D up today and hear all about her very first day.
<3 it!!! Bless little Avery, she just wanted to stay with her big sis. How precious is that. I look forward to this exciting year with Carter as much as you do with D. Like you, I couldn't cry the other day. Knowing how much he was going to enjoy just blessed my soul!
