I can’t believe today is here. My baby is officially a kindergartner.
I smooshed his lips against mine and sent him out the door into the world….
except i was holding his hand the entire time.
I held on really tight as he tried to pull his hand from mine to get on the bus…
and as soon as he let go…i waved and smiled…
telling him how much i loved him.
As soon as he got on the bus…i hopped in my car and followed him to school.
I mean….really…….
the bus driver was new….
and i wanted to make sure he got to school in one piece.
He did.

At last minute this morning…Lola couldn’t find the other new shirt we had picked out for
the first day of school. I’m not THAT mom….who has everything lying out and ready to go…
so here we are…in her black skirt…and her new hello kitty shirt from H&M.
She lived. I lived.

Right now i think i’m going to lay on the sofa for a few minutes…or an hour.
I might watch a soap opera….i might have another mimosa….or i might just sit and breath.
I will not be doing any laundry.
I will not wash any dishes.
I will not be answering the door…so please don’t “stop” by for a hello.
You should have stopped by this morning….the mimosa’s were cold and bubbly.
I’ll be back tomorrow with photos from my Moms and Mimosa get together….but i might have to
rename the party to “The real housewives of St. Charles”.
Just a thought.
Don’t worry…i had a slice of cake for you ….and one for me.
I might even have one more….while i catch up on Days of our lives.
