1st day of Kindergarten

Macy started Kindergarten today. Such a big day and I think we both handled it pretty well. :)


We started the day with Yummy donuts. Macy loves to help make them just as much as she loves to eat them!

You can't really tell in the picture but they are both covered in cinnamon sugar, luckily a bath was to follow.


Macy's 1st homework assignment


Bryan came home to have lunch with her before she left, he's such a good Daddy!


Macy all ready to go!


Her High School Musical backpack she picked out
(I love how the backpacks are bigger than the kids!)


Brady saying Good Bye to Sis


And a kiss!

I don't think Brady realized what was happening exactly because when I got home he ran to the car saying "Hi Macy!" and then he turned to me and asked "where's Macy?" and I said "At school" and he said "oh" and just looked at the car...SAD!


I cried on the drive over to school and then when she hugged me good bye, I don't think she noticed either time...whew! I'm glad that Megan and Taryn were there when we got there I think Macy was a little nervous to be by herself.

Me & Macy Bean


Macy & Taryn


Taryn, Macy & Aiden



Me & Macy, Megan & Taryn, Amber & Aiden


Houston was at recess and he ran over to say Hi to the girls & Aiden before they went into class


Macy & Taryn playing before they had to go to class


Standing in line waiting to go in, like good girls!


And there she goes, without even a look back :(


I can't believe my little girl is this big, it came before I even had time to think.
I love you Macy Laine with everything I've got!


I can't help but think of the ABBA song, so I am putting the lyrics...

Slipping through my fingers

Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
The feeling that Im losing her forever
And without really entering her world
Im glad whenever I can share her laughter
That funny little girl

Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see whats in her mind
Each time I think Im close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time

Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
Barely awake, I let precious time go by
Then when shes gone theres that odd melancholy feeling
And a sense of guilt I cant deny
What happened to the wonderful adventures
The places I had planned for us to go
(slipping through my fingers all the time)
Well, some of that we did but most we didnt
And why I just dont know

Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see whats in her mind
Each time I think Im close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time

Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
And save it from the funny tricks of time
Slipping through my fingers...

Slipping through my fingers all the time

Schoolbag in hand she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile...
