I still remember those days from six years ago with my little girl! Tutu’s for twos … and then for three’s … and the not staying in Sunday school… and the confidence she found in her friend Kianna to enter preschool happily on her first day… such sweet memories … all triggered by your post… Thank you!

what a beautiful post. It brought tears to my eyes as I though of my own little one. These first are to tearfully cherished, since they grow so quickly. Its amazing because there are so many first no matter how old they get. I really enjoyed this post, thanks for sharing

Gosh Susan she is growing up so fast. I just love her in her little ballerina outfit and what a big girl with her back pack. Time is going to fast!

P.S. Sorry for delay in catching up on posts… I was down with gallbladder pain and then surgery finally.

I love that you got every single morning of her first day, right down to drinking out of the fountain. What a wonderful day of firsts.

She is so precious and how exciting that she is starting so many new adventures. A big step for Julia, an even bigger step for mom! And I love the way you ducked and weaved past the hints of a meltdown.

My next milestone is my son turning 16. Luckily, I have two more years before that happens.
