Bekah is not ready and does not want to go :(
This year is a year of 1st's. Bekah's in 1st grade~ which means 1st time for her to be gone all day. From 8:15am-3:50pm. I'm kinda sad to see her go BUT I do have 2 other children at home to keep me occupied. She really is sad to be gone all day. In someways I think you know I shouldn't be sad~ I put in almost 7 Years of HARD labor you know the 24/7 type~ to get her to this point.....Just so I'll be sad about getting a few hours (ok many hours ) off a day? I guess even though being a stay at home mom is hard work...its a job that is REALLy hard to turn over to someone else for 8 hours EVERY day.
This helps put Sidney teething(no sleep for me) in perspective. I've handled it pretty well , knowing it won't be long and that Big yellow bus will be coming to get her.
Kaylee (my 3 year old) will be starting pre-school. 3 days 9:15-11:30. SO I will have a little time with just Sidney. Kaylee is my sweet little challenge. She is very demanding. So yes, I am looking forward to Someone else fulfilling those needs a few hours each week. She doesn't start for a week.
We went to Red Lobster to start the school year right. This is Bekah's FAVorite place to eat.
Here is a conversation I had with Kaylee at 8:30am on Bekah's 1st day of school.
Kaylee: "MOMmy , I miss Bekah."
Mommy : "Yes ,I do too."
Kaylee: "Mommy , when will Bekah be home?"
Mommy: "After lunch."
Kaylee: "Mommy, I'm hungry I want to eat lunch."
Later that day after eating Lunch
Kaylee: "Mommy, I hear a bus its Bekah's bus"
Mommy: "No Kaylee. Its not time yet."
Here is a recent picture of my sweet Sidney!
Stay tuned for Buckeye Preview where my Husband might have to make a guest appearance!

cute story with Kaylee. ITs so sweet the way little sisters love big sisters so much. Although, I think Bella is enjoying not having to share mom with so many people
lovely entry...and by the way...i was NOT inferring y'all were as old as me but I needed someone more adult than than the 18 year old I was sitting with yesterday....turned out the younger guy had the answer I was sure your hubby had. Oh well....so much for age and youth...enjoy the alone time....soon it'll be summer again. That's how time flies.
Your girls are so cute. And I love love love how little siblings get so sad when the older ones leave. Ammon cried and cried when Noah left and I am sure there will be more tears today.
awww she'll do great! How fun...You are like a bonafied momma with a school age kid, a pre-schooler and a baby llama! That was so cute about Kaylee missing her big sista!
