School Photo Day

Love, Mom

Bittersweet Moments

Izzy, you did not cry when I dropped you off at school today...you gave me a wave goodbye instead! YAY, what a milestone! You have finally gotten over your separation anxiety.

When I came to pick you up from school, I asked you...
Mommy: So Izzy, do you play with any friends at school?
Izzy: Dino, mmuak mmmuakk! *purses lips together and makes kissing sounds*

Oh my goodness...that's the funniest thing EVER! I went home and told Daddy and he was a little concerned. He has been teaching you to say "NO, Dino!" when he approaches you. Awww, Daddy wants to be the only man in your life. Hilarious.

Love, Mom

First Bug from Preschool

Yucky Yucky...

Izzy got her first bug from school today. You are coughing non stop and have a slight temperature. Urgh...Mommy hates it when you get sick but I guess it is unavoidable since you are at school now. Let's hope you get over it soon so we can go trick-or-treating for Halloween!

Love, Mom

Preschool days

Dear little Izzy,

You are having such a HARD time adjusting to preschool, much to Mommy's surprise! But I guess it's because you've been with me 24/7 for the last 18 months of your life. Some days are better than the others but you're always crying when Mommy drops you off. It breaks my heart but I know it's good for you. I hope school gets better for you soon and you'll start to enjoy it more.

Love, Mom

First Day of Preschool!

Dear Izzy,

It's your first day of school today! Mommy's excited. I think you will like school just because you are such an outgoing little girl and you love hanging out with people your own size.

You did well on your first day...you think it's just like a playdate with so many little friends and a great playground to play in. Daddy packed you a delicious lunch and you sat nicely with all your friends during lunch time.

This is going to be great! You'll go to school 2 half days a week and that gives Mommy about 6 extra hours of free time a week to work on her 3 jobs in addition of taking care of you full time! Oh wow, that's a mouthfull...I think I need 26 hour days!

Love, Mom

First day of school!
