I feel like its been forever since I last posted. I have been preoccupied with my only child going to kindergarten. Who would have known how hard that would be? I'm sure everyone else but me. I am still cringing at the thought of her in the public school system. With the new possibility of tardies, absences, and unexcused absences I feel like the only thing being tested is my parenting skills. Let me tell you I am NOT ready to be graded on this. I was fine with the responsibilities of a blobby baby. Feeding it, changing it, giving it baths, teaching it to crawl and walk and talk. I am not ready to accept the responsibility of getting my child to school on time Every day. What if I hit traffic (all 3 miles), what if I sleep in (2 alarms and the TV), what if she argues with me about how to do her hair and I loose it and then she losses it and then we have to make up (most likely scenario)?
Okay, I have taken a breath and hope you have too. Sorry for my rantings, but I am really in a state over this. I think I may have a different outlook had I not grown up with a mom who was and still is ALWAYS late. I am still thankful we were always within walking distance to my schools and I could leave at will. Well folks, there is nothing left to do but suck it up and move on. I have not faltered on a challenge yet so, Bring It On Kindergarten! At least I will always have my crafts to calm me down.
I hope all of you had a better adjusted back to school.
The week before this I had the privilege of making an order for my new found cousin. Many thanks to her. She was in need of a baby gift and of course being new to all this I completely overwhelmed her in the beginning. She was a trooper and stuck it out with me and we came up with a puppy style and I went from there. Hope you like them.
