Today was Daniel's first day of 4K and Laura Ann's first day of Mother's Day Out. Daniel was so excited. He prepared Laura Ann yesterday by reviewing all of the rules: no hitting, pushing or biting. He also reminded her to share with her friends. It was really funny. Laura Ann absolutely LOVED her backpack. She had a melt down when I took it off of her to buckle her carseat. When we got to her room she wouldn't take it off & according to her teacher, she wore it for awhile in the classroom. Daniel has passed the baby hall, the toddler hall & is now a really big boy going to the kindergarten hall in the basement. According to him, big boy classes are in the basement. They both went in their classrooms w/o saying goodbye. I know that is a good thing, but a part of me is sad at how independent they've become. They are really growing up! I was the only one with tears this morning! They both had good days. Laura Ann's report said that they are already "in love" with her. That was really sweet, but I had to laugh to myself that Daniel has never gotten a teacher note like that! :) He did have starry eyes on his chart though, which I was very proud of- hope he can keep it up! He was excited to report that his teacher read The Kissing Hand, one of our favorite books, & he had made a kissing hand for me. So cute! Best of all, I got to buy groceries all by myself today!!

Makes me tear up...They are getting so big. I'm glad both had a good day...and you too!
Wow I know you were sad...but also glad you got some Mommy time. I was thinking about putting Connor in MMO but am going to wait a year. I am not ready :)
I can't believe Daniel is in kindergarden! I would be right there with you with the tears! Anderson is almost walking and I just wish I could freeze time!
