New chapter in life

Well, I took my oldest to her first day of preschool this morning. It was emotional for me to say the least. I have been talking it up to E to get her excited and she did wonderful. She took off playing without a goodbye to me. Then I said, "Can I have a hug and kiss goodbye?" and she did and then gave her sis a kiss and hug and told me "Have fun Mom!" It went very well and I only welled up with tears once and did very good. I love her like mad and want what's best for her. It is so hard to let go. She's only 3 but I know this is going to be fun and good for her. Now I get quality time with Bubba twice a week. I am excited for that since she will be a middle child soon. I love my kids so freakin' much. Well, school has started and the playgrounds are quiet. It is a weird time of year. It is exciting and hectic. Hope this finds everyone well. Take care and love your kids with all you've got. Before you know it they are grown and out of the house.

Fifths Disease

We are hit by Fifths Disease. I don't know if you know what it is, but usually it is no big deal. Bubba has it, E had it. When E had it, it didn't even affect her, but with Bubba, she is a BEAR!!! She has a nasty cough with major congestion and to say she is a crab would be major understatement. Heaven help us get through this! I go to the Dr. in 2 weeks for blood draw and check up to make sure the baby is okay. This Wed. night we go to E's preschool for "round-up". I am very excited as we enter this new chapter in our lives. Our first born is going to preschoool. I must go deal with a raging lunatic now. EESH!!!! More later.
