My baby girl is a Kindergartner! Sami, I’m so proud of you – you ROCKED Kindergarten. You didn’t have any butterflies about it – you were SO excited. Your Daddy, Grammy and I walked down to the bus stop with you where you met your new friend Leland waiting for the bus. You hopped right on when the bus came – you gave us a little wave goodbye but were so excited to get on and save a seat for your friend Aliya who was getting on the bus at the next stop. As the bus drove away, I teared up as my little girl went on to her next adventure, and a whole new phase of growing up. Daddy and I followed your bus and met you at your school, where you lined up to go into your classroom. You were so confident and happy. We followed you into your classroom, but you didn’t need us – you put your things away in your cubby and said hello to Mrs. Johnson, and then you found your chair, and began to color a picture, and to make new friends. You rode next to Sophia on the ride home, and then got off the bus and dashed off to play with her. It was dinner time when we finally got a moment to talk to you about your day – you were so busy in the neighborhood, so excited to be one of the “big kids”! You told us that you loved playing on the playground, doing “homework” and making new friends. It was like in one day you just did a year’s worth of growing up. You were still buzzing even when you were laying down in bed tonight. I am so happy to be your Mommy, Sami. You are so independent, willful, silly, smart, loving and happy (well at least when you’re getting your way ; – ) I am so excited for all you will learn and do this year. But you’ll always be my baby. Love you baby girl.
