Today was the first day that our first kid went to school - really a pretty momentous event if you think about it. Which, of course, I have done a lote of.
For the next 15 years (at least) we will be roped into the school schedule thing . . . waking up early, doing homework, looking forward to summer break, etc. I'm still pretty shell shocked that I'm already a mom of a school kid. I mean, last time I blinked we were just bringing Grace home from the hospital (now I'm tearing up) and figuring out how to bathe a newborn. So cliche, but WHERE DOES THE TIME GO?!?!
Grace had a great time today. It was a more like a dress rehersal for school than the real thing because Mommy got to stay the whole time and there was not real structure, just play/explore time. Grace met her teacher - Miss Kathy - and enjoyed playing with all the fun & new things in her classroom. We also took a little tour of the preschool and met a few of her classmates. It went quickly and our big girl was not happy about having to leave when time was up. She's so ready to be a big girl, but am I ready for that? (I think I'll probably be the only one shedding a tear when I drop her off on Friday).
