My baby girl will be starting kindie in 6 days.
I'm pretty sure I am in denial.
Don't get me wrong, we are prepared.
I took her shopping last week and we got all her supplies, 2 new pairs of shoes and 3 new pairs of black leggings. (yep, that is still her pant of choice.!)
She found out last week that her teacher will be Mrs. Breedlove.
She saw her when she attended a neighbor's kindergarten graduation last year and has been smitten every since.
When I asked her why, her answer was: She and I look alike and our names are alike too!
(Tho she begs her daddy not to call her B-Love any more, she is digging the similarities with Mrs. Breedlove!)
She is over the moon excited.
I think I am kind of numb.
It has been a wild last few weeks. Very busy with lots of ups and downs.
But I don't know if I can blame my detachment on that.
Maybe my numbness is a defense mechanism?
How is it that my baby will no longer spend all of her days with me?
What am I going to do?
I know I will be super busy with Marshall, and I look forward to the special time I will now get to have with him.
But what about my Angel Baby? My Best Girl? My B Love?
I am gonna miss her so...
How great that she got Mrs. Breedlove, and I LOVE how her mind works with their "names". I told her that someday she would really treasure her Daddy and Mommy's special nickname. You hang in there, Mommy. She's ready for this step, and there will a whole new world for her to share with you after school:) xoxoxo!!!
