| Rylee wanted in on the action too!! |
I thought for sure I would be a wreck today. In fact, I told Jake the week before that he needed to be the one to take Avery to school and take her pictures and all of that. I was a mess the Friday before. I was mortified to send her on the bus. We have had a little boy in our neighborhood who has had a rough childhood, but has done some naughty things to girls around our neighborhood, and I am feeling so protective of my baby. I called the school to see if he rides the bus and they couldn't tell me either way. I just don't want anything to happen to my sweet little girl. I feel like I can't protect her from everything but the one thing I can protect her from, is not letting her ride the bus. I can prevent anything from happening on the bus if she doesn't ride it. I think all of my neighbors think I'm a little crazy, but if that's the one thing I can control, why wouldn't I? But she wants to ride the bus SOOO bad. That's all she talks about. We talked about him and if he rides the bus and she knows that if he does ride the bus, she isn't to sit by him. AHHH...I'm not ready for this. I feel like there are so many emotions right now that I haven't experienced yet as a parent and it's kind of scary. I hope I have taught her right from wrong, I hope she is smart enough to stand up for herself. Lots of crazy things go through your head with all these new milestones. I guess this is part of growing up.
Luckily, Avery was so excited to go to school, that it was actually really fun to take her. As we were walking out to the bus stop, she told me "I'll go by myself"...I'm thinking..um, no...this is for me more than it is for you!! It's hard to believe I have a kindergartener already. Time goes by so fast. She is so ready to go and thinks she is so big. She goes in the morning from 9-12, she is on A track and her teacher is Ms. Calhoun (she is so cute!). Hopefully kindergarten will be a good experience for all of us. It will give me time in the morning with Rylee and the new baby and it will be a good break in the day.

Okay, this picture totally cracks me up! The girls went to the first day, which happened to be on a Friday, which happened to be short day. Yes...a total of 2 hours of school....Well, we wanted an after picture and NONE of them wanted anything to do with it! So DRAMATIC!!!
