one week ago, our sweetest little baby princess girly started KINDERGARTEN!!
and oooh, boy. i feel like i have not stopped moving since. i’m literally aching today [so preg right now], but SO SO SO SO proud of this lady angel of ours! this week, she is already walking in by herself, at her request… you know, with me staring after her basically in tears and then texting her sweet, precious, amazing teacher to make sure she got into her classroom! haha.
it’s been a crazy huge adjustment for all of us, and i’m sure we’ll get some kind of steady routine going just in time to welcome a newborn. [haha! stability is a myth, i’m pretty sure…] but it’s also such an amazing gift to be heading back to a place every day that truly feels like home to me since i spent 13 years there, myself. as hard as it is to part with my little bff, there’s no place i would rather take her. but ask me again 10 weeks from now and i’ll probably be begging to homeschool. 😉
and!!! because you know i live for a good full-circle scenario… me walking in on the first day of kindergarten, only 26 years apart!
