Well...today was the first day for my first born to go to school ALL day...what a big hurdle for her and I, but for way different reasons. Last night as we put Bryn to bed, she was quite anxious about getting lost on the west side of the building and remembering that her classroom is on Lady Bug Lane on the east side. I pulled up a map and tried to explain where her bus would drop her off and where she would go based upon which door she was dropped off at. This morning she felt better, but still a little nervous. I reassured her that there would be helpers there making sure she made it to Mrs. Fluty's classroom without any problems. Besides, we had already taken supplies to her classroom on Friday and she already met her teacher.
Lunch was a big topic for my picky little eater. She decided on a peanut butter sandwich, watermelon, and cheese-its. Her daddy and I each wrote her a note as a lunch surprise. Since lunch is so early (10:50), her teacher wants us to pack a snack for later in the afternoon..and because of my wacky type A mind, I made her a container to keep her snacks in her cubby at school...a variety because you never can plan what she may feel like eating!
Oh, our little girl is growing up so fast. If I could freeze time in this moment I certainly would...I don't know if or when this is supposed to get easier, but knowing how AMAZING she is gives me confidence she'll do great!
