For weeks now every time we'd drive past Jake & Laney's pre-school I'd hear (almost in unison) "There my scoo Mommy!" Each time it was said with sweet excitement and anticipation. I would respond with "Yep and pretty soon you'll be there playing on the playground with all your new friends!" They couldn't wait! We couldn't wait! We got new sneakers, our first lunch boxes and made plans of what we would wear on the big day. And then we counted down the days....
To today!
{our first ~ first day of school picture}
{I couldn't resist!}
{The sweetest thing I've ever seen....Jake grabs his sister's hand as
they cross the threshold into a new world together..... *tear*}
{Laney & Jake ran to Miss Whitney and gave her a big hug}
{And just for fun....Jake's face says it all}It was a happy day filled with so much excitement that
I'm both sad and proud all at the same time!
