First Day First Grade

Summer has officially reached its finale and I have so much to blog about, but I will start with today.  Admittedly sending Curly to Kindergarten was harder than first grade, but sending her off to spend the majority of her day without me is scary, sad and exciting.  Curly was too excited to sleep and came into my room no less than three times, the first at 4:30 a.m. to see if it was time to get up and get ready yet.  She looked adorable once she was ready and I stared at her thinking about how quickly she is growing.

On Saturday she sat on my lap while we attended her cousins baptism.  I suggested that maybe she would like to go sit with her Aunt and she said, "That's okay" and wiggled in closer to me.  I know these moments are fleeting and was happy to just sit and hold her while it lasted.

Curly you look so cute, I am with Jen that outfit is so fashionable. But Curly sure knows what is cute and not. Way to be strong Auntie E- (what is your blog name)?
