Preschool



How could I forget? My Bella she started Preschool! What is amazing is that this girl, the one I thought would give me all the trouble, gave me absolutely NONE! Her personality totally changes when you get school involved. Bella asks me daily why she can't go to school everyday like Rose. She adores her teachers, Ms. Pranion and Ms. Marentette.

It's funny when I think about how I have two children in school now. It is amazing how time flies. I look at Bella and remember every little inch of her infant stage, what happened?



I hope something starts to slow down, because I want to start enjoying every little moment and that is hard to do when it seems like your life is in Mach speed (almost as fast as she peddles a tricycle)!

Kindergarten!



Yep, that is right - we all survived! Rose, I knew she would after being so excited. Me, however, I quite surprised myself. Perhaps it was the sadness the previous day that made the day go by easier. Usually, Rose is not a morning person, now things have changed. On the first day, she was up and out of bed and getting ready to eat in record time. She was excited - She wanted to go - She was ready!

As we arrived at school, I was surprised they had everything under control and running like a well oiled machine. They had aides and people everywhere guiding everyone to where they needed to be. That was nice! We immediately were shown the morning routine of finding lockers and hanging up bookbags and such and then were introduced to where she would spend the rest of the year - Learning!

After leaving Rose, I met up with my friend Ellisa for a off to Kindergarten breakfast at Panera. I needed that, unfortunately the Bella and Mia didn't. The time went by much quicker than I could have imagined and then it was ready to pick up Rose from school.

We arrived to pick up Rose and once again I had no worries. She ran up to us with a smile a mile long. She was ready for another day!! It's exciting - It's fun - It's School!!

Now we will see how long this feeling lasts for her ;) lol.

Time are hitting me hard!

Its amazing how time has no patience. Yesterday, um well I guess it was now over 5 years ago, I was giving birth to Rose. Now, tomorrow actually, she starts Kindergarten! It is so bittersweet. She cannot be more excited! I am crying, well sobbing really, at what tomorrow will bring for me, ahem...us! No more sleeping till we get up, no more daily activities together, no more just her and me while the other two nap, Yep this will be quite the change.

Rose, this kind gentle heartfelt daughter of mine, has been doing well with all this change. Perhaps I need to take a lesson or two from her. This weekend she decided she wanted to cut her hair so that she could donate her locks to love. I seriously thought I was going to vomit. I guess I cannot handle change with my children too well. However, her she is just as beautiful as before.



Oh and forgive me next week, when I blog about my new Preschooler ;). I am sure as soon as I start school in 3 weeks my mind will be back where it belongs, but as for right now - my heart is weeping. Good weeps, but hurtful ones, nevertheless!!

On to better notes. This weekend the girls, myself and their Grandparents enjoyed some putt putt golfing - we had a blast - every single one of us!



Look at these two girls, who are the best of friends. Bella officially announced today that she will miss Rose all day. *sigh*
