Preschool Grad...

I haven't posted about Whintey's preschool graduation yet.  Partly because three kids keep me pretty busy... but also because it makes me a little sad.

Whitney has loved preschool. She loves her teacher, her friends, the letter of the week, learning songs and wearing her backpack.  Before having the baby I would drop her off in the car and most often she would ask me to walk her in.  That's cute.  I want to remember that.  In all her independence, she still wants me to walk her in.. sometimes.

Whitney is my oldest, and therefore, the guinea pig in so many ways.  But she's also had my heart from before she was born.  I love her.  She's my only girl.. so far.  Her birth was the beginning of a new chapter in my life- motherhood.  She's my buddy.  After Bubba was born, I would leave him and Bart at home. Whitney would be in her carseat, age 2 and would yell, "Woo Hoo!  Girls' Night!  Woo Hoo!"

I want to remember that too.

We are the girls.

When Bart was telling Bubba about Father & Sons' campout, Whitney said, "When do we have the Mother and me campout?"  I am worried about next year.  If I send Whit to kindy-garten, she'll be the very youngest in her grade.  That has me worried.  I was the oldest and so was Barty.  But she seems so ready.  She's learning to read and write and be so grown up.  We'll see how this all goes!

Here's a few pics from that COLD graduation morning:

Thank you Liss Meanne!  It was a wonderful year!  We are sad you've moved to DC!!! :(
