First day of school...

Wow, it was such an emotional day. 

Ansley woke up early (which for those who don't know...this is NOT our morning child, she prefers to sleep as late as she can)!  She was so ready for kindergarten!  Ashlynn on the other hand could have cared less, she was more concerned about breakfast and how long it would be before lunch at school! :)

Traffic wasn't bad, I was surprised and we were early to their classes.  Ashlynn walked right into hers like she owned it.  We had to call her back for hugs and kisses, but she has several friends in her class (God bless that teacher).  Then it was Ansley's turn.  She was a little clingy and not really sure about it once she saw all the other kids.  But, there was a friend of hers in her class so that made it better.  After lots of hugs and kisses it was time...TIME for us to turn and WALK OUT of the class and out of the school.  Umm, yeah I wasn't too keen on that part.  I was proud of myself, I totally didn't cry in front of either of them, only got teary eyed walking out of the school, and was a COMPLETE MESS by the time I got in the van.  I thought the hard part was going to be leaving the class, not driving out of the parking lot.  Are you kidding me, why didn't I realize that actually leaving the school was going to be such an issue!  I did ask B if we had to leave, he thought the school might mind us being out the parking lot all day.  Lol...not to mention he had figured out since it was only 8:20, he still had lots of time to go get him breakfast before having to be at work. 

I do have a peace about their teachers, the school, etc.  So I know it is going to be a great year...plus, I'm not dropping them off everyday, that's B's responsibility...I have never loved the fact that he has to be at work at 9 more than I do at this point!  :) 

I forgot to pack the cable to download the pictures from the camera...so those will follow at some point this weekend.  Sorry...I was just focused on not crying this morning and on NOT forgetting the camera.

I do need to give a shout out to my sister-in-law, Laurie, she called and talked/ cried with me on the way to work.  It was nice that she helped me through it.  Love ya girl! 

Also, thank you so much to all our friends who called, texted, emailed, or did all of the above to check on us this morning!  We are very blessed...

 Hope everyone has a great weekend!
