How Did This Happen ?

Today our little girl, our baby, my schnoogie started Kindergarten. I have no idea how this could have happened because I swear 5 minutes ago we were boarding a plane to China to finally bring her home.

She was so excited and felt so big. We are so thankful that she is excited as my neighbours little girl started to cry yesterday cos she doesn't want to go to school and that would kill me. Miss Lil is even excited at the prospect of homework...... hmmmm, I wonder how long that will last.

I stumbled upon your blog quite a while ago through some other China adoption blogs. I had to comment today! As a former kindergarten teacher and now 5th grade teacher, that vidoe brought tears to my eyes. I love, love, love the eagerness the kindergarteners show on the first day and throughout the entire year really! I'm sure she will love it! :) I just wish I could get that same excitement from the 5th graders. :)

Oh my! I can't believe that made me cry. She's so grown up. And so excited! The things that she says just melt my heart. That kid is so adorable. :) At least she's not 10 yet. LOL!

She looks just darling. My children we very happy to go to school. I was the one sobbing and following the school bus.

Andie said...

I love the new uniform, it really suits her. The child is quite mad, I'm so glad she's not 10 yet, I dread to think what she'll be saying when she is.

Her uniform is adorable. I'm sure when my two go off to kindergarten I'm going to bawl like a baby. Sob.

She is adorable! I have mixed feelings about my boy getting older too, part of me delights in watching him master his world, and the other longs to slow down time..
