After we got Raceboy82 on the bus Dolly and I spent the morning together, taking our time getting ready for the big day ahead.
It was the kind of day today that mom’s all over the world talk about…the day your baby goes to school.
It was very important to Dolly…she wanted her hair curled and she wanted hearts on her nails. She told me she was going to tell all the kids they were pretty and ask if they wanted to be her friend. She also started getting really sad, not wanting mom to leave her when she got to the school.
That all changed as we walked up the stairs to her classroom. She didn’t even notice when I snuck out the door.
As I sat in the car taking a moment to myself I thought how just over four years ago I thought this day was a distant thing. It is no longer a thought in my head but a reality.
How fast the time has gone…
