1. Today was a wonderful day. Since, Sophia was home today (the other half of her class went to school) I wanted to make the day special. So, Mimi brought over some mini cupcakes and we spent the afternoon at the pool. It was a wonderful day with all my girls.
2. Tomorrow is Sophia’s second full day of school. She will get on the bus again tomorrow morning, but this time I will not be meeting her at school. I will say goodbye to her at the bus stop and I won’t see her until she gets off the bus at the end of the day. I just don’t know how I am going to do this day in an day out for the entire year and all the years to come. This kindergarten thing is not easy for me. It is so hard for me to not know what she is doing all day long. I want to know if she is happy. I want to know if she is making friends and having fun. I want to know all about her day. My girls are my life.
3. I think I am going to take the three little ones to the gym tomorrow. I am not sure, but I think it sounds like a good idea. The only thing I worry about is the babies nap. I would love to get rid of their morning nap, but I am not sure they are ready and gym time would be right in the middle of it. So, I have to make a decision. If we don’t go to the gym we are going to the grocery store. I am definitely taking the little ones on an outing. Our first one without sissy. Life is changing.
4. When Sophia was at school on Wednesday I have to admit our day was pretty easy. It is crazy how just one child can make such a difference and three kids are a piece of cake. Ha!! Life is all about perception.
5. I can quickly see how this everyday school thing is going to get old very quickly. The everyday running around doesn’t sound like fun, but we will see.
6. I made a delicious dinner tonight; if I don’t say so myself. I made one of our favorite dinners, sweet and sour chicken. I just feel so accomplished when I make dinner. I love when I can feed my hubby something tasty and homemade when he comes home from work. I am going to have to figure out what works for us now that Sophia is in school. I will come up with a plan.
Thank you Amanda for hosting this fun link up.

- What is on your mind?
Even though sometimes I wish I would be by myself and get a little break, deep inside I don’t want my daughter be anywhere else than with me. I can only imagine how you feel when she is gone ALL day.
You are so right. There are times when I wish to be alone, but then when I am I hate it. 🙂
I can only imagine what it is going to be like when Keenan goes to Kindergarten. I’m SO not ready for that day! I love having him home all day with me and even for the time he is at Preschool, I miss him! We have so much fun together (though I do get a lot done when he is at school!), and I know it’s going to be a hard adjustment when he is in school everyday.
On my mind lately is doing a better of job of letting go and just enjoying the present. There are so many things going on in my life right now and I just have to let things go and stop worrying how everything will turn out. Being a type A personality, I have a hard time letting go!
Oh my so much more difficult then I ever imagined. Enjoy your little man every moment you get.
Yes, enjoying the present is not always easy, but I try to do the same. I simply try to remember what’s really important and that helps. 🙂
