Melancholic.

November 2007. {First month in daycare.}

August 2011. {Almost five years old.}

Feeling a little melancholic and sad today. I come to realize that this is our last Friday together before my daughter starts kindergarten. And the fact that Abby is leaving the Little Bunnies Daycare after four years really puts life into perspective. My little baby girl is growing up and there's no stopping it.
Our daycare is throwing a farewell party on Wednesday. Irene will present me with a photo album of Abby's four years in daycare. If that doesn't start the tears rolling then I don't know what will. xo

WOW!!! This is HUGE! Can't believe she is school age already (Abby — back the train up! Slow down!). Kudos to you for being able to keep her in the same care all those years, bravo!! I suspect we'll be back here again in a few years for Hudson's turn :(

Oh that will be a day of mixed emotions and in our family that means a kleenex train of laughter and tears. Abby has been in such an awesome spot with a real gem of a loving caregiver. xoxoxoxox

Total HUGE! I know... back up the train that's going too fast! LOL I don't want to know how much I've spent over four years. Yikes! It's one of those 'firsts' that seem to crop up really quickly - even tho I've wished for this to happen sooner than later. Abby is getting really bored at daycare so kindergarten will be great for her! Yes, we were lucky getting Irene! Oh Andrea...do you know how many shots I took to capture this one? haha Yes, the flowy hair on the ferry turned out all Beyonce like! Love you all! xoxo
