First day of Kindergarten...

Sara Beth's first day of Kindergarten was Monday. I can't believe its already time for her to start. She got up and was ready to go in about 10 mins never have I seen her move that fast... She got everything ready to go. I was telling her what she would be doing today, I told her that she would only stay until 12 but that she would get to eat lunch in the cafeteria...Thinking that I would get a comment like the cafeteria wow great...no this is what she had to say..." oh no what color milk I'm I going to get today"...she then said I need to call my daddy and ask him a question so we call daddy and she said daddy what color milk should I get today white, chocolate, or, pink (strawberry)??? Brent said WHAT... so Sara Beth tells Brent about getting to eat at school and she just doesn't know what color to get...Well after about 5 mins of talking about milk... Brent said you go to school three days this week so get a different color each day..everything fixed right? WRONG!!! what color should I start with... Then Brent said I don't know get the "PINK"...well with that out of the way we could make our way to school... We got to school and Sara Beth said mama you can just drop me off... UMMM NO....She said well OK but you can't cry...me cry..well OK maybe I did when Lane started school but I really thought that I had it all together today...We went into her class room and found a seat and was putting everything up...still no tears...I was just about to tell her bye when Ms. Mayo her teacher came up to me and gave me a letter. This is what it said..


The First day of Kindergarten
I gave you a little wink and a smile,
As you entered my room today.
For I know how hard it is to leave,
And know your child must stay.

You've been with her for five years now,
And have been a loving guide.
But now, alas the time has come
To leave her by my side.

Just know that as you drive away
And tears down your cheeks my flow.
I'll love her as I would my own
And help her learn and grow.

For as a parent I too know
How quickly the years do pass.
And that one day soon it will be my turn
For your child to leave my class.

So please put your mind at ease,
And cry those tears no more.
For I will love her and take her in
When you leave her at my door.

Well after that little note I had a small brake-down...Sara Beth said see this is why I wanted you to drop me off at the door...I got myself back together and gave her a huge and kiss...off she went... When she got home that night she had so much to tell us about..but the first thing that came out of her mouth was" I got WHITE milk today"....

First day of 2nd grade

My baby boy is now in second grade. He was so excited to start back to school so he could see all his friends. The cool thing about this year is that he has the same teacher (Ms. Thompson) that he had in first grade. All the same kids are in his class also. The kids had a 2 hour day on Friday ( what is that about?) Monday was there first full day at school. I was anxious to get home to hear about the first day of second grade. When I got home Lane was asleep. I knew something was up because Lane doesn't go to sleep well at night much less in the middle of the day. Brent said that he had to go get Lane early for school because he was running a fever of 103.4 and his head was hurting!!! Brent took him home and gave him some Tylenol. Lane told Brent that he was cold so he was all covered up and asleep. I checked on him from time to time last night to make sure his fever was not up again. He went to sleep about 4pm yesterday and slept till this morning. I checked his temp. today and he didn't have one. He said that his head wasn't hurting anymore and that he was ready to go back to school.. I'm not really sure what that fever was about.... Maybe his first day of second grade was just a little much for him!!!!!

We need some PINK shoes!!!!

Since it was tax free weekend me and Sara Beth went shopping for school stuff. I can’t believe that it’s already time to start back!!! I knew what I needed and I was on a mission for just that shoes for Lane and Sara Beth. I thought that we could go get there shoes and be back home with in a couple of hours. I mean really how long does it take to get two pairs of shoes? Let me tell you it takes about 4 hours. Well maybe not that long if you have a child like Lane, I had ask him what kind of shoes he wanted before we went and he said “ whatever I don’t care” easy, easy. But my sweet little Sara Beth told me that she wanted some with PINK on them. I thought pink that should be easy enough… right? I was able to get Lane a pair at the second store we went to…So next it was time to look for a pair for Sara Beth. I knew after 3 pairs of pink shoes and she did not like any of them that we were going to have a problem!!! We looked and looked and looked. Oh yeah we found pink shoes but not any that Sara Beth liked. I had told her that we were going to try one last store and if we did not find any shoes for her then we would just have to try a different day. I could only take so much shopping for the perfect pink pair of shoes. Well we were at the last store looking and Sara Beth said to my surprise “mama I found my shoes” I turned around to see what she found and this is what Sara Beth found for school

Yes that’s right high heels that were $175.00. After about four hours of shopping and no pink shoes that would work for little Miss Sara Beth. We went home, Brent ask me when we got home and only had ONE pair of shoe, why did you not get Sara Beth a pair. I told him "Well because the only pair that Sara Beth found were $175.00". Brent almost fell out of his chair. So no shoes for Sara Beth we’ll try again soon.
