this is what she looked like before heading out the door for an hour of "preschool practice." basically an hour meeting her classmates, checking out the room and one of her favorite parts, having a snack. and juice! juice is important as she really doesn't it get it often so it's quite the treat.
she had her backpack on - even though she asked me if she had anything to put in it. we didn't. kitty was in tow, even though she had to wait in the car while she was in school. and the picture she was asked to create was in hand. her teacher sent her a sticker sheet and asked that she create a picture and bring today. C is going to a christian preschool so that's a jesus sticker that you see with some blue crayon. i couldn't believe it. my little queen of sticker sneeze used only one sticker?! apparently she was going for the minimalist approach.
and she loved it. she told me that i would tell her good-bye, she'd give me a kiss, i'd take ladybug to target and then come back and get her. and so that's what we did. when we picked her up she said she had so much fun and that she missed me.
our baby girl is going to preschool. so very surreal.
i can't believe she's old enough for preschool! looks like she's going to love it. =)

Loved the picture and the smile! How could she get so grown up so fast? I know how hard that is on a mama...can't wait to hear all about it!

She's going to have so much fun, and you're going to have a blast hearing all about it! I love picking N up on preschool days, hearing what he learned about that day and seeing his cool crafts. Such a fun time!

I'm thinking you haven't posted lately because you're probably waiting for me to comment on the newest post...
She sounds like a brave little girl! Glad she had fun! :)
(Okay, ready for more posts and pictures now...)

Well Alla would tell you that she's saving all of the stickers, paper pads, envelopes, notebooks, and pencils in a box under her bed "for college." So maybe that's what C is doing?
Fisher starts next week. I'm with you, can't believe it.
