1st Grade

Ok, its just bout time to walk my bugga to the bus stop! Its totally kewl (for me) that she wants to ride the bus. Backpack - check, lunch box - check, kid - check, coffee in hand - check, nervous - check! LOL! I hope Court and others sending off their babies are READY! Kayla is really excited and a bit nervous too! Hope everyone has a GREAT day!

I know what you mean.  Even though my girlies have done this for years it was a lot of nerves for me hoping they would enjoy it.  I looked at all the pics you emailed.  Your girls are so gorgeous and look like they just enjoy life to the fullest.  You have a lot to be proud of.  Enjoy every minute of it, they grow so fast.

Well, I am back from the bus stop and I have to say it was kewl! Our neighborhood is mostly older couples or couples with wee babies so there are only about a handful of kids. Kayla is so proud of herself! Awww thank you these 2 are really growing up. I am really grateful to be so blessed.  I found something PERFECT for this and many other occasions... Truly, memory is a mental bank account. In it we deposit the treasures of our lives so that, in time of need, we can withdraw hope and courage. These treasures are memories large and small; splashes of joy ranging from a pat on the back, the beauty of a full moon on a special evening, finding an empty parking space when we were in a terrible rush, enjoying a glorious sunset with someone we love.  --- added to this --- watching your babies grow up in awe because you remember how you held them in your arms and they needed you; now you watch them now as free spirits and independant.... I love ya Court!

My 1st and 2nd graders go to the bus stop in about 20mins.  I am trying to truly enjoy every morning as surgery is 14 days away and I won't be able to function for a tad bit. My youngest starts preschool tomorrow. She will go three days a week.  I am so proud of her.  She is REALLY shy and this is a big step for her.

Good am! Exciting days for you as well...with them going to school and your upcoming surgery! My lil' bugga Nora is headed for a bit of preschool too! Life changes and I'm loving it! Do enjoy your day!

Congrats Kat and all Mommies and Daddy's sending their kiddos off to school. What an exciting time!  My kids are 16 1/2, 17 1/2 and 23. The younger two started their junior and senior year today. Time sure goes quickly doesn't it?!

Thanks! It sure is exciting! My baby did well. She came flying off the bus with big hugs. Now, we've got a folder of "stuff" to fill in/sign and a bit of homework. She had a nice day of things so I'm thankful for that. Yes, time has certainly gone by!

Well, girl, I drive the bus, so I made my 1st grader wait till everyone was gone so I could walk her in :)  My middle one started Junior High today, and I cant wait to hear all about it!  James is now a junior, so 2 more years for him........And my first day back at work in over 3 weeks, well that was a shock.....I need a NAP!!

Hope you have a GREAT day!!
