What a better way to kick off my blog than with a huge family milestone...
Today, Madelyne attended her first day of preschool. It's hard to believe our fiesty, energetic, always inquisitive, first babe is already off to school. Needless to say she was pumped! No tears, no worries, geeshhh, I could hardly get a good-bye kiss. Back-pack in hand, stocked with snacks, her thermos, and her slippers she was ready to say good-bye "litle girl" hello "big school girl!"
I must admit, I welled. Not full tears, but a few good wells. I had to bite my tongue, realize she doesn't always need me by her side, say good-bye and tell her I would be back in a short while to pick her up.
Life will never be the same.
Congratulations BIG GIRL MADELYNE on your first day of school.

Wow. Life really has changed as your First Princess has gone to "big girl school"! Happily, the changes are: new experiences to share with Mommy; new stories to tell to Mommy; more "special moments" as Mommy and Madelyne sneak in some "big girl" time after school!
