Kate goes to Preschool

Okay - I cried. A lot. I was still teary when I picked her up two hours later.
Kate started Preschool today. She was so excited! She has been asking everyday for weeks when she gets to go to school. She was so upset when her brothers went to school without her. What drama! (especially for Kate, who usually isn't a drama queen).
She was up early today, dressed and ready to go. I made a new skirt for her to wear. It is very twirly and she loves it. We had to wait until 9:30 for school to start. She was quite anxious since her brothers start at 8 am.

We walked to school. We are lucky enough that Kate's preschool is in our neighborhood and a lot of her friends get to go to school with her. She walked right in, put her backpack away and started playing. I gave her a kiss and she waved good-bye. So easy for Kate - so hard for Mom!
She had a great day! Kate loves preschool and I know she will have a terrific year. If only Mom can survive without her for four hours a week!

Oh sweet kate is growing up so fast. I'm so sorry I forgot and didn't call you. I"m sure it was really hard to see her go. On the plus side you have 4 hours for sewing each week!!
