Then when the time got close she got pretty quiet. Finally she spilled her guts as to why..."Mommy, I think I'm scared." My heart about broke. I knelt down beside her and said 'Baby there is nothing to be afraid of, tell me about.'
With tears in her eyes and in true Avery fashion she said, 'Well I just dont want to have any homework!'
After I assured her that there would be no homework she was ready to go again. This kid cracks me up like none other.
I had a harder time letting her go than that. I had to hold back the wall of tears as I took her picture and helped her put her backpack on. I had to smile through the tears as I kissed her good bye and told her to have fun. That was a tough one. This isnt getting any easier the more times I do it.
Oh My Heart.
Daddy showed up just in time for a good bye kiss from his girl.

Woah! She looks so grown-up with that backpack on. Tell her I'm proud of her for being such a big girl now! (How's Sully going to survive his days without any big sisters to play with?)

Lucky for Sully its only 2 days per week and only for 2.5 hours!
Yeah Avery! Preschool won't know what hit 'em!
Brian and I are sitting here laughing as we read the homwork comment.
I know what you mean about not getting any easier. I had a much harder time with Isaac going to preschool than Evan. Our two older ones do sound a lot alike! Hope she had fun!
