School Girls


The wheels on this bus went ROUND & ROUND

and carried Paityn off to Kindergarten today!


These 2 handsome boys came to escort her to the bus!
{Her cousins: Nick & Ben}


Here's all the cute neighbors at the bus stop
{Corbin, Jacob, Luke, Nick, Ben, Gracen, Elle, Brody, Maggie}


The bus driver asked if I wanted a picture of her on the bus, I couldn't resist
{LOTS of kids on that bus, then my heart jumped . . . please don't let her get trampled!}


And let's not forget this lovely lady.
Although she isn't technically old enough for Preschool, a few of my neighbors are doing a swap play group/preschool twice a week. So as far as she's concerned, she's in PRESCHOOL (and trust me, don't tell her otherwise)!
So of course, on her first day {Monday} I had to take her picture too!
Such an angel face!


So WE survived! I was so nervous the night before Paityn went to school. I never rode a bus going to school so the unknown scared me a little. Will she make it to her class ok? Will she be scared? I asked her if she wanted me to take her the first day, but she said she wanted to take the bus.

I didn't cry at the bus stop, but my heart sunk just a little. Seriously, how did we get to this point so quickly! Public School. It's almost like I had to let go a little. She's getting bigger! I love watching her learn and grow, but each day that passes by is gone and I can't get it back. She's such a good girl! So sweet, spiritual, funny, blunt, cautious, obedient little girl. I hope she never changes!
