Well, I have been scared. Reheheheally scared. I have been terrified that I could not get all 3 kids out the door and at Kindergarten with Anna Claire at 7:35. I mean, these kids have been at home thier whole lives!! We did the two days at the Methodist Church Preschool and without that tool we would have been completely lost and traumatized with this transition. We had to be at the church for preschool at 8:30 and I picked he up at 11:30. The door to drop her off was right there beside my car door. I woke up Ezra took him to the car in his pj's. Came back in and got Elijah out of the bed and put him in the car. Came back in and put Anna Claire in the car. Came back in and got all things needed to go with us. WHEW.. I am tired now.
Making this kindergarten transition has been hard. This is a BIG school!!! Well, we went for the orientation Monday night...we went for 5 minutes on Friday. (I must say going Fri was fun for me...even though I didn't go to that school it brought back many many memories.)
She walked in school like she owned the place. She knows where everything is already!!! Tomorrow is the big day. The big day that I will snap 100 pics of her and her lunchbox with Princess towel in tow. The big day I see my 5 year old walk that LONG walk down the sidewalk into the school. The big day I let my little girl go. Alone. Please say a prayer for me as this has been excruciating for me. I will post pictures tomorrow of her school sidewalk ...that is so long and her, my precious little girl.

Oh! Allie, you don't know how many memories you just brought back. I remember my baby's first day of school...she is now 14 going on 18. I was strong for her until that very last moment when she walked away with her teacher and classmates. I cried all the way home:^) I will say a prayer for you...be strong. They grow up so fast. I can't wait to see the pictures. Have a great Sunday!

I know the feeling. My oldest starts school on the 24th. It's WAY different from MDO! I have had to find out everything myself - no sweet little notes in the mail from his new teacher like I'm used to! And - yikes - you actually have to be on time in kindergarten - uh oh.
