Kamryn's First Day of Preschool

Well after a long (but full and exciting) weekend, we had a barbeque at Nana's to celebrate Grandpa and Steven's birthday which meant that we were not as prepared as I wanted to be as usual.  Baby Kaidyn is teething (again) so he of course was up at 4:30 this morning which meant I didn't get as much sleep as I wanted either but I got up when my alarm went off so that was good! I opened Kamryn's drapes so the sun could wake her up instead of me (she is grouchy when she gets woken up) but baby Kaidyn took care of waking her up for me so it wasn't my fault anyway.  She got up, picked her cereal, got showered and dressed, then we finished her hair and brushed her teeth and she was ready!  She asked for her backpack (which she is so excited about) and posed for a few pictures >>>

Then I took her to school for the first time =[  Thankfully when we got there she looked a little nervous and said "no momma sit down".  So even though my heart was screaming "YAY she's not ready let's go home", I did what my head said and showed her one of the "centers" (her school has three  each day that are directed toward the senses) and then went to stand by the door.  A few minutes later she turned around to me and waived and then said "bye momma, I see you later after school.  I yuv you!" I said "okay have fun" and then walked out the door, jumped in the car and cried!  I have since decided that it is not just that she is getting so big that I am having a hard time with.  It's the fact that I DO NOT like to share! I think I need to go back to preschool myself because my biggest issue is that she is MINE and I DON'T want to share her with anyone!  It's horrible, I know she is fine and it's good for her and blah blah blah.  I just simply don't want anyone else to benefit from how smart and beautiful and talented and perfect she is!  Of course once I realized this I thought "I am a horrible person!" haha.  Because technically, she's not mine and I only have her because someone else was gracious enough to share her with me in the first place! So, I am fine and I will spare her the few hours a week that she is gone in order to benefit her education and I will be eternally grateful that I have her as much as I do!  Of course when I picked her up she came running and was so excited to see me which of course makes everything better! She told me about her day and her new friend Oakley and Lukey and showed me her awesome gingerbread man that she made and then taught me the "everybody clean up" song that she learned today and again I realized that she is soooo ready! 

Oh yeah, and Kaidyn ate Spaghetti for lunch!
