Last night my littlest, Ellie, cried for about an hour because she was nervous for school to start, and by the time she went to bed, I was pretty sure I was just as nervous (if not more) than her for her first day of school. So I can't begin to express how crazily happy I am that this morning went pretty darn smoothly. I'm eager to hear how both of their days went.

Ellie's really grown up this summer, and I think she's really ready to set out on her own school experience. She won't be in Kindergarten until next year, and I'm really happy that she'll have this year to grow some more and prepare. She got to bring a stuffed animal to school for her first day, and I left her hugging her teddy bear, smiling at her desk. She loves her sister fiercely...and while she's nervous to start school, she sees her sister's enthusiasm and that helps.
I can't believe that I have TWO kids in school now. I don't think it's really sunk in. I think it's going to take a while. For now though, I'm just going to give myself this week to adjust and help my kids adjust.
I wish all of you with kids going back to school the smoothest of transitions back...and look forward to sharing new projects with you soon.
Much love,
XOXO,
Jill

ReplyDeleteBesote!!!!
Lu vio el vestido en la tienda e inmediatamente lo quiso para la escuela. Así que por supuesto, Ellie lo quiso tambien. Ellas son buenas amigas. Muchas gracias por el comentario, Ayla.
