Well, this morning, I will be dropping Ally off for her last day of day
care. She's been going to this place since she was 2 and it's a place she
dearly loves. Last night, she had the realization that she wouldn't see
those teachers anymore and she cried. She said, "But I want to hug them
goodbye!" I explained that today was her last day and she needed to hug
her friends and teachers today, but then also told her we planned to do
Parent's Night Out still so she'll see everyone from time to time. That
made her feel better, but it still won't be the same. I just hope I can
get through today without sobbing. I'm already teary eyed as I type
this..
<sigh> ... What happened to my baby?
On a brighter note, she had her orientation for her K/1 class on Tuesday
and she was so excited. She and DH came to my classroom first and then we
went to her room. She was able to lead the way with no problems. She's
been there 3 times now and already acts like she owns the place! She was
practically tearing my arm off to get down to her room. She liked her
teacher and was excited about the guinea pig they have in there. I think
she's going to have a great year! :)
My big girl..can it get any more bittersweet than this??????
