We started something new this year. On the night before the first day of school, Memaw fixed her famous tacos for dinner. Brenna has already declared it a new tradition. That girl loves her some Memaw tacos!! And as luck would have it- this was the ONLY picture I got!
We all are until we were about to explode! It was a great time with family.
The girls already had their clothes ready to go for the next day. So as soon as we got home, they got ready and got tucked in for the night.
Out soon to be 3rd grader...
And our soon to be Kindergartener...
I will admit- I wasn't nearly as emotional for Macie to start kindergarten as I was for Brenna to start Kindergarten. It had nothing to do with my love, because I love both of these munchkins more than they could ever comprehend. I think it was mainly because I knew she would be in great hands with Mrs. Boecker, and I knew her big sister would be there with her.
Now I know that Brenna isn't going to be right there with her all day long. However, it is just so nice knowing that Brenna can walk in with her each day and show her where to go. And take her to class if she forgets where it is. And that Brenna will be with her after school when it comes time to get on the bus. It just gives me a peace of mind. These two may argue all day every day, and act like they drive each other completely crazy (driving me completely crazy in the process) but in the end, I know they do love each other and will not let anything happen to the other one. It just gave this Mama a peace in her heart knowing that B would be there looking out for her little sister.
My only concern was how Macie Claire would handle that first morning drop off.... would she cry? I had no way of knowing. But I went to bed and prayed long and hard that it would be a much smoother transition for her than preschool was. It had to be easier. I couldn't take it if it wasn't....
