My
sweet girls birthday is Saturday, she's had her heart set on a Little
Mermaid birthday for months now and I'm so excited for it. We've
arranged to have it at the splash park close to our house and she's
requested hot dogs and fruit. Done.
She's nearly 4 going on 14. She's sassy and smart with the biggest heart a girl could have. Right after she turns four she will start pre-k. This is huge you guys, we opted to have her go trough a church near our house and it is three days a week for 2.5 hours. I searched and searched for a pre k that had a similar schedule. 2 days was not enough but 4 was too many, not to mention finding one that wasn't 4 or more hours. That's just too much. For us. I understand schedules and working family's but this is a giant step for us. In her four short years my girl has never been around any type of day care setting. The gym-no. Fred Meyer kid spot-no. Literally nothing. We've attempted the gyms day care one time and they came and got us 10 minutes later. She's close with her grandparents and her aunts, that's about it. Shes got a shy little personality but when you know her, she lights up. Until about 6 months ago we were going to stay at home until kindergarten, but Raygan has helped us change that decision and we both think this is what's right. And so does she, she is so damn excited. I'm excited for her to meet new friends as we as the time ill get with Remy. We went to pay for her school and her teacher just so happened to be there, SCORE! Seriously, for my shy girl the more she sees your face, the better its going to go! We've chatted about how her teacher was “so so nice” and Raygan insists that everyone is going to miss her while shes in school-damn right. Mamas freaking out over here.
On
that note-I'm also worried how little sister will react, they are so
close, best friends, little amigos, but once again, it will be good.
Right? Right?
I will tell you how terribly bad I am dreading the first drop off day. I'm confident that there will be tears and some clinging going on, and I'm confident that the tears will not only be from Raygan. I'm terrified.
