I am not ready. I am not ready. I am not ready. Abi is starting preschool on Monday and I am not looking forward to it. She is my girl. I have been blessed to stay with her everyday. I'm just not ready for her to be a big girl. Abi on the other hand is counting the days. She knows her first day outfit, her back pack has been waiting by the door to go to school and she has reassured me that she will draw me pictures and have fun. Today was her orientation and we met her teacher and she is wonderful and I can already tell very kind. Plus our friends Mandy Jarvis and Luke wheeler will be joining her in the same class. As tradition Mam-maw and Papa buy the first back pack and lunch box so Abi got to spend the day choosing all her new gear carefully with us and Mam-maw. Thanks mom and dad! So ready or not Monday is the day. Abi will love it, and I am going to cry but I will try to wait till I am in the car. I can not wait to hear all about it. I love you boo! I can not even believe you have grown up this fast. I remember late night cuddles and feedings, fist steps and words, and all the great "little girl" moments like it was yesterday. I love you! Have fun big girl!

Wow! It doesn't seem like she should be old enough yet to start preschool already. I know that when the time comes for Nicholas I will probably be just like you....not ready! : )
You know what though? That's why preschool is so great... not only does it give them a chance to adjust but also Mom. She'll only be gone a few hours instead of the whole day!
I remember the feeling only a year ago. I also was not ready! I did not make it out of the class room before I started crying. I had to call my sister on the way home ( a sympathetic ear to listem to me cry) because Paul thought I was nuts. I'm sure I'll do the samething with Haley in 2 years.
They grow up way to fast!
Sorry Mandy! The first one is the hardest! You will enjoy all her treasures that she brings home.Good luck to both of you on that first day!
I felt your sadness when I was reading this. With her being happy about going helps your emotions a little and thankfully she will have friends in class that she already knows. Abi looks soooo cute in all of her school "gear" Good luck!!! She will have a great time and you will love to hear her endless stories about her days at school:)
You may not be ready but she sure is! That picture of her looking at all of the back-packs is just so cute. I bet she picked out the perfect one. See you tomorrow morning. Mandy can't wait to share her cubby with Abi!
