Day 5 and our week is done!

Day 5! I can't believe we have finished the first week of school already. It went by so quick! I went and had lunch with Morgan today. Brought her her favorite, Chic-fil-A. It was so fun to go up there and see all her little friends and watch her interact with them. She has a pretty big class. Of the 22 students in her class there are only 8 girls! We took her teacher a little gift today because of the crazy week she has had. She loved it. Morgan had a wonderful first week and she has learned so much in just one week. I look forward to having lunch with her again. Looking forward to a nice low key weekend and sleeping in tomorrow!

Day 5 and it's spirit day. Go Shannon Stars!

Day 4!

Day 4 was a great day. Morgan is making friends and learning so much. She is so excited about going to school everyday. Best of all, she goes to bed when I tell her to. I wonder how long that will last. Things couldn't be going better. As for me, I have completely enjoyed being home with her this week and being able to take her and pick her up from school. I never thought that I would say this, but I really think I could enjoy being a stay at home mom. I am looking forward to going and having lunch with Morgan tomorrow and seeing all of her little school friends and putting a name to a face. Day 4, you were a complete sucess!

Day 3!

This morning I took Morgan to Galaxy Ranch to make sure she is comfortable with the morning routine of riding the bus to school before I have to go back to school next week. So being the crazy mom that I am, I dropped her off the drove to her school and waited in the parking lot to make sure she got of the bus and into the school ok. Well, she did it. She got off that bus and trucked right into the school as if she had been doing it for years. As I sat there and watched my baby girl walk into that big school all by herself, my eyes filled with tears. She is growing up. My baby girl is no longer a baby. She is a little girl coming into her own. She is AMAZING! I am so proud of her and for the little girl she has become. Although we have our moments, Morgan is the best daugther a mom could ask for. Morgan I love you so and I am so proud of you.

And there she goes. My little school girl.

Day 2!

Day 2! Yesterday was a great day. Morgan loves her class and is making new friends. There was a small little incident at her school where one of her classmates got on the wrong bus and was missing for 3 hours. Just glad that he was found safely and no harm done. My heart goes out to him and his family. I can't even begin to imagine what they went through yesterday. That is the prime reason that I took off this week so that I can make sure that Morgan transitions well this week and that she has as minimal stress as possible. So far she is doing great. Much better that I excepted. But that doesn't surprise me. She always blows me out of the water with all that she can do. Guess I just don't like seeing her grow up so fast. Looking forward to seeing what day 3 brings.


Morgan looking cute as usual.

First Day of School!

Well the day I have been dreading for the past five years is finally here, Morgan's first day of school. Although I am totally excited for her as she starts a new chapter in her life, part of my heart is breaking. My baby girl is growing up, and growing up way to fast. It just seems like yesterday I was holding her in my arms as I watched her sleep so peacefully. Now, I am sending her out into this great big world of ours. So I will pray for her safety and pray for Mrs. Keegan as she helps build my little girls mind and set the stepping stone for her education. I know it is going to be a great year full of wonderful memeories. Oh, and for the record neither me nor Morgan shedded a tear today!

Meet The Teacher

Tonight was meet the teacher night at Morgan's school. We are so excited to have Mrs. Keegan. She is super sweet and I think that it going to be a great year. Morgan is so excited because her best buddy Grant is in her class as well. So here is to the next chapter in her life. I know that it is going to be a great one.
