Schoolin'
Somebody forgot to tell me not to be excited about Czarina's first day of kindergarten. I didn't realize she would cry, which would make me cry.
Boo.
I should have known by the timid smile I got in the "before" pictures:
If you think of it, say a quick little prayer for her- she was pretty upset when I left today, poor thing.
UPDATE: When I picked her up this afternoon, she was grinning from ear to ear. She had a great day, and is happy to go back tomorrow! She told me that she was sad at first, but then she just gave up. That sounds so sad, but I think she meant she decided to get over it and be happy. Anyway, her day definitely improved, thankfully!
Here are a few more pictures I've snapped over the last couple days-

Oh my, she looks so sweet, so little and yet so grown up! I cried the first day Gatlin went to school, too. I also followed the bus for 2 weeks and hid behind corners at the school, secretly following him to class to make sure he didn't get lost! Ahh, the bittersweet joys of parenthood. Savor each moment, because in no time at all you will be watching her graduate.

Where is Playdoh Brittany? I worked too hard on her hair (and her boyfriend's) to not get my props!

I forgot ALL ABOUT HER!! Hold on, and I'll display your handiwork for all to appreciate.

I remember the day you went to school as if it were yesterday. I was so proud of you and I knew life would not be the same. I would no longer be the star lady in your life. Silly I guess but I was slightly jealous. Czarina will do just as you did. Make the adjustments and of course the teaher will love her. She is so polite and sweet. Enjoy! Love Mom
