Change

We've talked about Reid going to school for months. We have driven by the school and listened to Reid yell, "There's my pre-K" for months. We even went and bought her school supplies. But, today, we walked in her school hand and hand. It was real. My baby is going to school.

She was so excited. They took her picture with her new name plate and took her into the gym to meet the pre-K teachers. They were doing some assessments and parents were relegated to the hallway to fill out paperwork. She came out just beaming. We bought her school shirt - every Monday is spirit day and they all wear their school shirts - and I paid for a school year worth of Pickles & Popcorn day purchases (they can buy candy/popcorn every other Friday).

Then, Reid got mad. She wasn't getting to stay at pre-K; she had to go back to day care for the rest of the day. Not her idea of what was supposed to happen! Two more weeks, sweet girl, just two more weeks.
