I cried this morning as i dropped my baby off for her last day of her first year at preschool. I am an extremely emotional woman right now, but that's beside the point. The point is that an entire school year has just flown by. Not only did the year fly by, the year transformed my baby- a mere two-year-old on that first day of school- to a smart and confident girl. I was blown away last night looking at pictures of these kids- how different they all looked just nine months ago. You never notice it on a day to day basis, but to see it glaringly right in front of your face- Wow!
We were able to pick the kids up early today to head on out to the playground for a feast for families and teachers and kids! The school did an amazing job all year, so i was not surprised to see that the end-of-year picnic was a huge success, too. I am sad that we won't be walking through the halls for the next three months, but i am ecstatic to start our lazy days (wishful thinking...) of summer! I'm sure that my mental image of relaxing by the pool while M swims with her little friends will soon be shattered by the realization that i am the mom of two this summer- one of whom doesn't like to be sitting still... even if she can't crawl or walk yet! Still, i can dream!
Happy start to the Memorial Day weekend, All! Stay Safe and Have FUN!
