This week is truly insane!!!!!!!!! beyond busy or hectic BUT TRULY
INSANE!!!!!!!! but it marks the end of a poignant time in my life. As
of August of this year I will no longer have a preschooler in my home.
This has notoccurred in 9 years. I was pregnant for 5 and now have had a
little one at home for 9. I thought in the early years I would greet
this time with whoops and hollers but instead find myself teary and irritable. More edgy and testy and quick to speak and slow to listen. Which for
me shows my great immaturity and lack of quick wit. I want to be happy
and be able to celebrate as my now 5 year old takes her last steps in
preschool and prepares for big school. I want to be able to smile as my
child who we thought would at the very least repeat kindergarten. But is now
going into the 2nd grade without repeating anything and is getting the most improved reader award at school on Thursday. And watching my now almost 4th
grader turn more into a young lady and less of a child. I really love
my life I have a great hubby, great kids, I can pay all my bills and take care
of most of my wants. I have a fabulous job, great boss and truly
exceptional friends. But why this is so hard I do not know ? But as it
draws closer I feel like I am walking the plank so if anyone has any
life rings to throw "bring em'on"

Hang in there SUG! You will make it through this week, and through all these changes! And you will learn to do a really good bun!
I think you and Junebug have given me a good idea for a blog. But it is getting late now, so I will have to do it tomorrow...
i promise you...the best is yet to come. the past few years are just the prep for what's ahead! buckle up!
and amen! to the great boss comment!
i love you!
I felt the same this time last year except it was my oldest going to kindergarten! You will have to look back at the post on my blog about that. I was an emotional wreck! I can't imagine what I will be like when conner gets there!
cm I looked at your post how sweet was that. You family reminds me so much of us 2 girls one boy one kid with great comedic timing & one princess and seems like one other princess with independant qualities. I will be such a wreck that day she goes to school I will probably have to go back to bed. We will just have to see right now she is way ok with going. I still have to get through her preschool program on Friday so the flood may begin early who knows.:0
