Tomorrow's the BIG day...



Abby starts 1st grade tomorrow!!!! I can't believe it!! ALL DAY! She goes from 8:30am-3:10pm. How sad! She is SUPER excited, for me, not quite the same reaction. I'm super sad. My little girl is growing up. She won't need me for 7 hours out of the day. I try and stay positive around Abby but once she's in bed, I cry like a baby.
We got a few school clothes and she went and got a hair cut yesterday. She has her lunchbox and just went to the grocery store for things to make her lunch with. She has her outfit all picked out and is ready to go! :(

I'm enjoying my time off from life, although it seems too short. I already have begun getting books ordered and things ready for me when I go back on the 23rd.

My birthday is coming up. Do you ever feel like once you become married and a mom that YOUR birthday just isn't celebrated or cared about? I do. I feel like my birthday has taken a back burner (which is ok with me and I understand) sometimes it's just nice to be remembered and noticed.

Last weekend we did the baking for the activity to help my mom, and I'm glad that's over. 75 brownie bites and who knows how many mini cupcakes later. It was a success. Now she's on to her next project. I just wish people would realize how much time and effort she puts into these things (too much if you ask me). She is at the computer from the time she wakes up till she goes to bed, coming down for breaks in between. Devotion.

Other than that, life is good! Sad...but good! I've already got a list of things I want to get done while Abby's at school. That will be nice, to be able to clean and not turn around and have another mess twice in size right behind me!!

Good luck to all those kiddo's starting school!!! (and good luck to the Mom's!!)
