Today is the first day that being a mommy has been painful for me.
My Emma-Lee has started kindergarten today. I know it seems mellow dramatic to some of you but it was like giving away my heart. She was being so brave. Last night she asked if I thought the other kids would pick on her. We waked to her class today and got pics. with her teacher, then she had to sit up against the wall and wait for the rest of her class mates. When she sat down she was hiding her face from me. Then as I was walking away I looked over my shoulder to see the fear of the unknown on her face and I almost went back down that hall to bring her home.
It made me remember my first day away from my Mom. Mom thought it would be good to put me in preschool. I cried all day!!! She ended up working at the school just so I wouldn't cry all the time. I did get used to it after awhile.
Kathleen asked if Emmie changed while she was away so long. I told her she was our same old Emma-Lee. I know how she is feeling because I have been a wreck for 24 hours worrying if she would still be my well adjusted sweet innocent little girl. Come back soon for the update!!
