Kindergarten Registration

On April 10th, I registered Piper for kindergarten. I can't believe my baby is big enough to get on the school bus and go to elementary school! She is beyond excited about it, but it is very bittersweet to me. I am so sad that she is growing up and that my time with her at home with me is coming to an end, but when I see her face light up whenever she talks about kindergarten how can I not be excited for her. She is constantly practicing her reading and writing so she is ready for school. She is very serious about it.



I have to admit I got a little jolt of energy rush through my body being in an elementary school again. I didn't know if I really wanted to go back in the classroom when the girls were in school full time, but just sitting in that office, filling out papers, watching the quiet lines of classes walk by answered the question for me- YES! I didn't realize how much I missed it until I was there. I have loved the time I have been able to stay home and I am so grateful that Bob works so hard so that I am able to, but when Paige is in first grade I really think I want to get back in there, hopefully part time so I can still be in their classes helping out.

Congratulations Piper! Kindergarten is so much fun! K loves it - it's a whole new world.

I know what you mean about the rush of being back in a school again - it IS fun. Maybe I'll go back someday...

Can't wait to hear all about Piper's first day - it'll be here before you know it!
