Growing Up

Time flies doesnt it? Frog and I took the Drama Queen to register for preschool this week. She starts in the fall. Just like real school. She is so excited. I am not sure what I am. I honestly started to get a little choked up when the secretary was telling me about her teacher. I will admit here and now that I am one of those moms who is going to have a hard time letting her chicks out of the nest. I hate it when they spend the night at Mama's house. Not that I dont like some me time or a date night with Frog but I also like to wake up to a full house. The kids love staying the night at Mama's house so I let them of course but that doesnt make it any easier. I thought I would surprise Frog two Christmases ago and take him to a romantic weekend getaway. Well, I was ready to come home after the first night. The girls on the other hand? Having the time of their little lives with my mom staying here with them. What I am trying to say is I am going to be a certified mess the day I have to drop her off for her first day of preschool. And this is just two days a week. I am going to need a whole box of Kleenex or a straight jacket when she starts Kindergarten. I have plenty of time to prepare for that thank goodness. Where does the time go?

It all goes WAY too fast. My twins are leaving for preschool this fall and I'm numb about it. They were just born, it feels like.

I know the feeling too! Mady is starting Kindergarten in August and I'm a nervous wreck about it. I think I will do better with it though than I thought because last week she had safety town and she was there for two hours alone. I did ok with that but I only had to drop her off the last day because her aunt and grandma took her the other days. I just can't believe she is five. It goes so fast!
