How can it be?? Mia started
Kindergarten on Monday. We have been so excited all summer, but then we went for meet the teacher last Friday and I spent all weekend having anxiety that she was actually going to start real
school, and would be gone all day. She woke up early Monday and was ready to go! She posed for lots of pictures, and was all smiles. We all drove her over to school and I walked her into class - all the sudden she seemed too small to be in that big
school and away from me all day (8 am - 3pm). She found her seat and said goodbye - and I stood there with tears as she basically pushed me out the door. She was more than ready to start this new adventure! Lily and I missed her all day - Lily asked 50 times (at least) when Mia was coming home. So to make the time go faster we made a huge batch of chocolate chip cookies. After
school Lily and I were waiting and Mia came out of her class just beaming - she loved
school, her teacher and her class. We came home and ate tons of cookies as she told me all about her day. It was a hard day for mom, but Mia had a blast and was ready to go to bed and start it all over again.
Mia woke up to signs all over the house - usually mom's special, handmade signs are saved for birthdays, but I just couldn't resist!
Lily got up and wanted to be in the pictures - you have to love her just-got-out-of-bed hair.

In her classroom - ready to learn!
