First day of school

Uno started kindergarten last Monday, the 18th, and I am now the mother of a public school kid.

I didn't cry; I didn't get emotional over my little girl growing up. Who are we kidding? She's been ready for this day for years already: She's anxious to learn. She's desperate for a wider social circle than just me and her sisters. She wants to take that small step away from me and toward the rest of her life, and it's my job as her mother to cheer her on to independence.

Uno walks to kindergarten on her very first day

Go Uno!

Oh my goodness..it doesn't seem possible that she is old enough. I am pretty sure she will do well at school and everything else in life. She has fab parents to help her along.

Thanks for the nice compliment on my blog a few days ago. I keep reading your blog because I enjoy your writing very much. The picture on this post is so nostalgic. No, poignant. Keep up the good work!
