I haven't blogged in forever!! I am so behind I almost dont know where to start. Expect a big catch up post soon... maybe.
Emma had her first official day of pre-k today. She didn't seem nervous at all. Glad one of us wasn't, I couldn't eat at all this morning and my stomach was a mess.
She had to be there at 8:00. She went right in and we hung her backpack in her cubby. Mrs. Carter (conveniently one of my sister's bff's) asked Emma if she wanted to get a puzzle to play at the table. Emma went with her so I decided I would just make it easy and just leave. I started crying as soon as I left the classroom, made it to the car and had a little pity party.
My pity party didn't last too long. I realized how blessed I am to be able to take Emma on her first day. And how lucky we are to have a great babysitter who will take Emma to and from pre-k. And lucky that Ms Tonya will be taking Emma's best buddy, Breanna, to and from pre-k too. I just love that they will get to be together. I am also so glad that Emma gets to go to pre-k in the mornings and not the afternoons, that way I don't have to give up any of my time with her. I also love how it's only 3 days a week. Oh, and the school nurse is totally a good friend of mine that I grew up with. She even texted me once this morning to tell me that she checked on Emma and that she was doing fantastic. How awesome is that?
Drew and I were there to pick her up at 10:15 sharp. (We were a little too excited to pick her and were there a little early so we hung out in the parking lot. Also, don't fret!, Drew changed before we picked up Sis. lol)
Emma had such a great time. This is what she told me "Momma, I didn't get sad. Not once. I didn't want you at all." And to be truthful I am so glad!... well kinda.
