It's "summer"

Yesterday was Delainey's last day of preschool... I am sad and excited for her all at the same time, but right now my 'baby' girl is struggling. As we were getting ready to walk out of her classroom yesterday, I told her "Delainey make certain you hugs your friends and tell them goodbye" to which she responded..."Well I will see them all in kindergarten mom"... uhhhh ohhh. I then had to explain to my child that she will not be seeing her friends in kindergarten. None of the children who were in Delainey's preschool class will be going to the same elementary school that Delainey will be. Once I told her this she burst into tears and was almost unconsolable. She even told me to go home without her because she wanted to stay at school with her friends... it was so sad.

BUT once I got her into the car, I told her we would go to her 'new' school and take a peak around and also find out who her teacher is going to be. This lightend her mood considerably. Once she learned that she had gotten the teacher she wanted *well the teacher we had convinced her she wanted* and that two of her cousins (technically my cousins but they are closer to her age then mind) went to the school she seemed ok with everything. We happend to stop at the school as they were letting out for the day, and Delainey saw said cousins walking home. She then said "Since C and M go here they can walk me home so YOU don't have to come get me".... ummm thanks kid!!! :)

With the new 'summer' is going to come an adjustment period. Delainey being back home with us every day, and also Brody unlike last summer is walking EVERYWHERE and climbing on EVERYTHING... sooo... my challenge for the summer had begun.. yay me :)

I am sure that we will all survive the summer of new, with me also attending summer classes full time... ahhh... :)

Have an awesome summer everyone!!!
