"All I really need to know I learned in Kindergarten."
I can't believe that all my babies are now in school. They grow up way too fast! How many times have we said that, but don't they grow so fast? Diapers and bottles and baby food....they all seem like yesterday.
If you would of asked me a year ago, I would of said that I really wanted one more. Bill would of agreed. Then, July 4th I guess it was, I remember suddenly realizing how nice and special this phase of life is. My children are independent and are so much fun to have conversations with. I can leave home without making sure that I have everything I need in the diaper bag. I can actually carry a fancy purse, if I wish. No more lugging the stroller around or bulky car seats. It's amazing how we suddenly realize that we are enjoying this new place that we find ourselves at. Not that I don't have baby fever moments, but that's just it, they've become moments and not days or months! We are having so much fun.
I was so nervous the first week that school started. In all honesty, I wasn't worried about how Emma would do, I knew she would be fine. I was worried about me! I think Bill was too because he must of called me a dozen times the first day of school. I've only been without Emma a handful of times since she was born, so it felt like I lost a limb....or two.
Her first day was wonderful! She had so much fun. I don't even think she was really ready to come home when it was time. She has a very sweet teacher, so we are happy about that. Believe it or not, I survived the first day too. The first week seemed to go by so slow. The days seemed to last forever. This week has been a different story though. You would not believe how much I get done! Even on the days when I have the day care kids, I can get things knocked out. I've even found time to read and decorate. Amazing, huh?
We have been super busy this school year though. All the kids are doing different sports and activities, so I feel like I live in the car, but we are loving it! Wouldn't trade this time for anything.
