I am with you. Abby was technically in Kindergarten last year, but it
wasn't "real" kindy since we've planned all along for her to repeat it.
She
starts kindergarten, for real this time, on the 20th, and I am starting to
get teary just thinking about it. She is still just a baby, how can she
be
starting big kid school?
I have been wa****ng her uniforms and getting her stuff ready (we are going
on vacation next week) and I almost cried last night when she tried them
on.
She looks so grown up.
