Tears of sadness. Tears of excitement.
Today, Carter began her years of education (like her first four years haven't included plenty of that!!). She moved to the 4-year old room at daycare, and started their "Creative Children" pre-school curriculum.
She was pretty excited about the new move. There were new books to read, new centers to explore, and old pals to play with. Her teacher also has a disco ball that she turns on during nap time (meaning Carter doesn't nap, Carter goes to bed earlier, everyone wins!!). And there's a fish. Does it get any better?!
We were pretty excited, too. But it's so hard watching your little punky grow up every day. She's more than ready for preschool, but that didn't make the day any easier. I started school at JMS, Carter started preschool, and Andy started his final week at Principal. It was kind of an overwhelming day for me. And it was sappy-music Monday on the radio (my drive to work was kicked off by "I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing," our song), and I spent most of the drive in all teary. What a mess!

Off to (pre)school we go!
