Twas the night before Kindergarten and all through the house...
Wow! I can't believe my baby starts kindergarten tomorrow. I have so many mixed emotions. I am so happy she's excited and ready to conquer the world but at the same time my heart is hurting because I feel like it's the end of our little chapter. We have sacrificed lots for me to stay at home with Chloe from day 1. It wasn't always easy but it's the best thing I've ever done! We have had the best time together and have been able to do so many things. I have been able to shelter her, control what she sees, hears, does...and in some way I feel like I'm handing her over to the wolves! Here's where I have to start trusting that we've given her what she needs to make good decisions. She has been a blessing and I am so excited for her big day!
Tonight we gave her "The Kissing Hand". It's a book about a baby raccoon who is nervous about going to school and his mama tells him an old family secret. She kisses his hand and tells him to hold it tight and he can feel her love any time he gets scared or sad. I bought her a necklace with the kissing hand on it and she was thrilled to wear it her first day :)
We got all our supplies ready, clothes ready lunches made and baths! I asked her what she was most looking forward to and she said "the water fountain"!! That's my Chloe :)
Tomorrow will bring such excitement...can't wait! (Ok, maybe one more day :)
