Our Big Kindergartener....Ansley Harper.

I have put this post off for several weeks because I just can't bring myself to write about it.  The emotions are still too fresh and the thought of actually having a Kindergartener is mind blowing.  Part of my heart went to Kindergarten on August 14th and although it's just Kindergarten, it's still so painful to send our sweet little girl off to school for 8 hours a day for the next 13 years.  Painful ya'll.  I've had some major crying sessions, which started LONG before the first day of school.  Some at night while tucking her into bed, during prayer time, mornings when I realize the weight of it all, and those sleepless and tear-filled nights when I just can't get control of myself!  Ugh.  There's been some really ugly cries.  This is our first babe and I know it won't get any easier with the next ones in line.  The fact is....this is life.  As sad as I am that our little one is growing up so fast, I know that she is ready and it will be so exciting for her.  Whew!      
Our excited Kindergartener!

She helped me bake cookies to give to all the school staff, especially Mrs. Mendi.  The tag said....If you give a teacher a cookie. Happy 1st Day of School! Love, Ansley. (Thank you, Thirty Handmade Days!)

We stopped by our "built house" as Ansley calls it to take a few pictures before dropoff.

I'm so proud of how well she did.  Mommy and Daddy, however needed some meds....:/
