school days...

miss emma had her very first day of pre-k.

she is enrolled in a 3 day a week church preschool this year, and her very first day was oh so exciting! she was even excited about wearing her new shoes! but as always, it was bittersweet for me. this is the last "first day" before kinder. yikes. it leaves me wondering where we'll be next year. from the looks of things, it doesn't look like we are going anywhere. yikes again.

oh well. i plan to make the most of it, wherever we are. i found super cute "first day" printables on pinterest (oh my heavens that site is addicting!), but that doesn't help things when your printer is broken. so, i whipped up one of my own.

we snapped a quick family photo and headed out the door. we were so grateful to have our daddy with us :)

she was so proud of her pink birthday scoop of ice cream on the wall. it's the little things, right? they are the purple dragonflies this year, and emma let me know that she would rather have been the butterflies. i couldn't agree more.

we got hugs and kisses. no tears. and that was that. she jumped right in and hasn't looked back.

then, it was just me and bro for a few hours.

oh and i totally forgot to post about of big eight years....

and on another note...

rob is convinced that i should have ant beds in my car. if you have littles, you get it. if you don't, then i'll let you know that almost all mommas struggle with the whole "food in the car thing." i'll clean it out, feed africa, then get really strict on eating in the car. about two weeks later, when carson is screaming, we start the vicious cycle all over again. as i look at this photo, i'm not seeing any food. i've been trying really hard, so if you see my sweet hubby, the one who is waiting for ants to colonize in my mom-mobile, could you let him know that it doesn't look all that bad?

thanks y'all.
