When do you ever get over how quickly your kids grow up? Milestones are a big part of life, and this milestone is probably the biggest of her life yet. I thought walking and talking were a big one, but when the child has an understanding of what is happening, it seems to be an even BIGGER milestone because you see and understand that they aren't the little baby you gave birth to anymore. They are now INDEPENDENT and excited about it!
Alexa is, at the moment, at her first day of preschool. She has been talking about this day for the past 3 months, from the first day we went and checked out the preschool. Talking about how she is going to "highschool" (I was really nervous about her saying that! lol NOT YET!) and telling everyone that when she goes, she will never see them again.
Last night she was giving everyone hugs and kisses, saying her "final" good byes and letting myself and great grandma Joan know that we couldn't stay at school with her. Ok, this kid really is independant, and shouldn't be this excited to go to school, should she?
This morning she wanted her backpack on immediately and was rearing to get going. All the way to the preschool she couldn't stop asking when we would be there. She walked right on in the front door, put her apple with her name on it in the attendance chart and said, "ok mom, now you have to go home. I will see you later. If you need me call me, for anything" Ahhhhh.....children!
