It's the eve of her big day...the day Eleighsa will be heading off to school. Ok...so it's not college and it happens to be only 2 minutes away. But this is big time for her. She's prepared for this day all summer and at last the day is arriving. She's had the items on her school list bought months ago. What was on that list? Napkins, tissues, and an art smock. Those items have been stowed away in her closet anxiously awaiting the day that they'll be taken to the bright lights of her very own cubby. She had to have her fingernails and toenails polished tonight. She's already chosen what she wants to eat for breakfast. All the while knowing she is carrying the cutest bookbag ever to have been made (thanks Aunt Luann & Uncle Paul!)
While visions of chalk dust and crayons dance in her head, I'm wondering where four years have gone. One minute I'm holding onto her hands to teach her to walk and the next I'm walking hand in hand with her to school. So much happens in so little time. Off to Pre-K she goes!
