Another Chapter....

It has been a fun and busy summer and now it is time to open a new chapter in our lives...Maddie started Kindergarten. Yesterday was her first day. She was more then anxious to go. She looked all grown up. I had many thoughts as this day had been approaching....I thought A Lot about these days...

It seems like only yesterday she was a newborn and I spent all day cuddling and loving her. I was so happy to have her a couldn't believe she was mine. Before long she was a big three year old heading to preschool...
She loved both years at First Christian preschool. and I cried when I saw her graduate...

And there are No words to describe what went through my mind when I saw her yesterday like this....
I looked at her with tears streaming down my face and I knew in my heart that she was ready for this new chapter in her life...even if i wasn't. So we loaded in the car and i said a silent prayer that she would have a great day and that the kids would be kind. I prayed that she would remember all the things we had taught her and that she would stand up for herself and Always be a good Example. And most of all I prayed that she would be watched over and that her teachers would love her and see in her what i see in her. And my prayer was answered she came back smiling, and happy! I think we will have a good year.
