savannah.

my girl,

i probably shouldn't admit to you that the other night while daddy and i were talking about you starting kindergarten i got weepy. your daddy didn't like the subject, because it made him sad too...so we quickly dropped it.

i know you will be a rock star at this kindergarten gig. you always shine when it comes to making friends, and learning.

i love that you like to be different. please don't change because of what someone says at school. own it, because it's a totally radical personality trait.

i wish that you could have stayed our little side kick forever. i will miss cleaning machines with you. i will miss my best lil' friend, because i know you will quickly make 10 other best friends...and maybe mommy won't be as cool. i will miss those three hours that we usually spend together.
have a good time girly.

i love-aaa, love-aaa you!!

momma

ps make sure to sneak into your bedroom with the phone, and tell me how your day was at school.

Aww bittersweet. She looks adorable. I'm glad you documented this event and even more glad you shared it with us. She will do just fine and the moments you spend missing her will be overpowered by the joy you feel when she gives you a big huge hug and tells you all about her day.

I can't believe she is in Kingergarten! I think back to when you were pregnant with her and we didn't really know each other! Makes me feel kinda old! Love you guys! She looks so cute! I hope you post pictures of her other uniforms!
