Well....it is official! Bella is in Kindergarten right now as I type this email! She said she was a little scared, a little nervous, but also excited. Thankfully, her teacher was a pro and grabbed her as soon as she saw her and took her into class....she didn't even look back!
I was a total emotional freak last night. I just love my babies so much and I am so excited to see them reach all their milestones.....and as a parent, I know one of the most important things I can do for my children is to teach them to be equipped and confident enough to be able to venture out on their own.....this is the beginning of Bella's school life....she is on her way......and I am so excited, so proud....and just a wee bit overly emotional......a new beginning for her, marks a bit of an end as well....she is growing up....and I am so happy, I cant stop crying! Only a parent knows happy tears like these!
Some of you may be thinking, "it is only Kindergarten", but I honestly think that pretty much all we ever need to know, we learn there...not academically, but socially.....we are basically taught to be kind, to share, to have respect, how to honor ourselves & others, we are taught to take pride & ownership of our gifts & talents, we learn self confidence, etc. You know....all the stuff that builds character and strengthens our integrity.......I don't care what my kids end up doing in life, as long as they are happy, healthy, and not hurting others.
I just hope, pray and try my best to be the best Mommy....best Auntie.....best daycare provider for all of these precious little babies that spend time in our lives.
