Reagan's First Day of Preschool

It seems like my life is passing by me in the blink of an eye. I can't say enough how much I wish I could slow time down. My babies are growing WAY too quick and although I love each new experience I am blessed with with them, I secretly wish I could freeze time and keep them little forever. It's hard to let go, it's hard to move to the next phase and it's hard to not be the only decision maker in your child's life. In one month I first watched my first born start kindergarten and now, my sweet little Reagan has begun her journey in preschool. It was a TOUGH day for me, super tough. I know it sounds silly, but from the time Reagan was born, she has ALWAYS been with me. Peyton is my only child that in the beginning was in child care. Reagan, Jordyn and Caiden have always been with mama, and that's the way I like it! So it was tough to walk out that door!
Reagan, you of course were happy as could be and told me m"mommy, I don't want you to stay"...It made me happy that you wanted me to go but sad that you were ok without me!;) We walked in, found your name, found a station and you were well on your way to being a big preschooler! These first few weeks of school you have done great! You have had a few sad times, but mainly GREAT times! It's been amazing to watch you grow baby girl and I know you will do great at Joyful Noise Nursery School just like Peyton did! I could not be leaving you in better hands!!

                                             Big hugs for Mrs. Davis-You just love your teachers!

                                       Finding her name. This is such a great activity because it really does help them learn and recognize their name and the letters in it! Peyton picked this up so well and they also move on to address and phone numbers in the afternoon class! That's how Peyton finally learned our address:)

Reagan and Mrs. Graham. Reagan felt so special because "sissy's" teachers, were now her teachers!:)

           Me and my sweet little princess....I am glad I could smile because I wanted to cry.:(
So.....It came and went and I am now the mom of a kindergartner and a preschooler! There are good points and bad points of having all 4 kids so close in age. One bad point is that you move to the next phase with each way too soon like an assembly line!;) However, it looks like it's not going to slow down anytime soon, so I am just going to embrace it and keep freezing these moments in my mind so I can remember my sweet little angels this way as they grow!
