School's starting for my girls

Today was Taylor's first day of second grade. It was a success, too!!! We didn't miss the bus. We were up early, dressed, eaten breakfast, packed lunch, and early to the bus stop. All these things are important....because the first day of school in kindergarten we were running late. I don't think I'll ever forget that.
We had an open house on Monday night. We met Taylor and Jamie's teachers. Taylor has moved upstairs now. She has a shared locker in the hallway. She is big stuff. I could tell she was a little nervous, but she was more excited than nervous. Last year the transition to first grade took about a month or so. She really didn't want to go to first grade and she made a point of acting out. I'm really hoping this year she does better. So far so good!
Tomorrow will be Jamie's first day of Kindergarten. I can't even believe it. She was so excited before going to bed tonight. I didn't think she would ever go to bed. She set out her clothes, then got out of bed to put her glasses with her clothes, then had to come out of her room again to check on her clothes. I'm really excited for her. I think she'll do great, I just can't believe she's going to kindergarten. I said I wouldn't be sad, but I've been sad for a while now. And tonight I looked at toddler pictures of Jamie (BIG MISTAKE). She's still my little girl...so is Taylor. what in the world will I do when my little man, Ethan goes to school???
I'm hoping for a good start in the morning...so I'd better put myself to bed. :)
