It's hard to believe that summer vacation is over. Seriously, where did it go?! I feel like Avery was just getting off of the bus to start her summer, and here she is going back to school already.
I will say, we had a pretty good summer. Avery made a summer list of things that she wanted to do and I think we did all but 4 of them (out of about 25!). We were busy all of the time-we barely had any free days in our schedule, hence the lack of posts from me lately. Having her home ate up my "me" time while Cassandra napped so my time was spent with my big girl.
Tuesday I took a half day at work and took Avery to school to meet her teacher and drop off her supplies. Then I took her out for ice cream-just the two of us. When we came home, I took a pic of her in her shirt that will fit her someday!
2027 seems like a long ways away. Yet if someone mentions 2003 does it seem that long ago? Funny how 12 years in the future sounds so far away, but 12 years in the past seems like it was yesterday. The mind does funny things like that. I hope the time doesn't go too fast...I know we can't slow it down but I wish we could! I'm still wrapping my head around the fact that it's September already and it's time to think of school! I wish the years took their time like they did when we were kids. I know Avery felt like her summer break was long....for us, it was a blink of an eye.
Yesterday we got our girl on the bus for 1st grade. First.grade. Hold me. She was so ready too-even though she doesn't know many kids in her class. She's ready.
I'm so proud of this girl and how well she adapts to going back-no tears, no whining-just pure joy. Love her!
