I took Bess and Ava out of care for the summer to give them a good
old-fa****oned summer, so Bess already said her goodbyes at preschool. It
is
pretty exciting that Bess is now a big enough girl to go to elementary
school too. The idea of going to kindergarten did stress her out a bit
when
she found out about it at the end of last school year, but she has had a
summer to think about it, and is getting very eager to go now. School
doesn't start for another 2 weeks for my girls.
