The official school year has started! Sam started 1st grade on Tues. 9/4/07 with a full day. She was excited to eat lunch at school and see her friends but mommy was a little emotional. I've had Sam with me for most of the day for the last 6 1/2 years. I know she's growing up but it's hard to let go. Sam is in a 1st-2nd grade multi age classroom in order to challenge her a little. We met her teacher Mrs. A last week at open house and she seems really nice. I've heard excellent things about her, which is good because Sam has her for the next 2 years. Sam really enjoyed her 1st day and didn't miss me at all! She told me not to be sad because I still get to see her on weekends. Carly started preschool on Wed. 9/5. Her teacher is Mrs. B and she goes M/W/F from 9-11:30 AM. I dropped her off and went inside to help her get settled. Together we hung up her backpack and found her name tag. Then she took off and it was goodbye mom, hello school! Afterwards daddy picked her up and took Carly out for a special lunch. When she got home I asked Carly if she missed me and she said no too, with a little twinkle in her eye but said I love you mommy. I guess it's my job to raise independent daughters but still -- where's the love!
