we got her outfit all ready.
On the day before the first day of kindergarten...
I baked cookies, made the 'First Day of School' cake, washed sheets, bought a few supplies we had forgotten, finished first day teacher gifts (I know, I know. It truly is an illness), and packed her backpack.
On the day before the first day of kindergarten...
I tried to get in extra snuggles.
On the day before the first day of kindergarten...
I gave her a shower, even though she squirmed and squealed, and reminded me in no uncertain terms that she had "a shower yesterday!!" (Hey, in the summertime, the chlorine in the pool keeps them plenty clean. ;)
On the day before the first day of kindergarten...
We read a few extra stories, and I felt a little nostalgic that after ten years of being at home with at least one child, that phase of life in our household has passed.
On the day before the first day of kindergarten...
I choked back tears more than once.
And my little angel... my youngest... my sweet baby who is on the threshold of a whole new adventure in her young life?
Well, on the day before the first day of kindergarten...
She channeled her inner Anna-Nicole Smith.
I hope kindergarten can survive her.

If you ever post something that sad again, I will personally come over and kick your behind! I am a year away from that day and just thinking about it makes me teary-eyed.
