I can't believe tomorrow is the first day of school for the girls! I'm not going to know what to do with myself when I only have 2 kids at home during the day. But, I'm definitely looking forward to it. Not only because the days will be slightly easier, but also because it'll be nice to have the opportunity to focus more of my energy on the boys. Most days I feel like I'm just on autopilot doing what has to be done. I envision myself now slowing down to really enjoy more of the special moments with Ryan and AJ. In the blink of an eye they'll be heading off for their first days of Kindergarten. I'm already shocked that AJ will be a year old next month!!
I just tucked the girls into bed. It's so funny to see the contrast between Kaeli and Paige. Kaeli is this big ball of energy! She's so full of excitement and nervousness all at the same time. She was talking non-stop--which she tends to do when she's feeling nervous. She kept squeezing her stuffed animal really tight as she talked. I know she wants to feel excited, but she's so afraid of the unknowns. So, I think the nerves are taking over for now. I wonder what time she'll finally fall asleep? Now Paige, on the other hand, is kicked back in bed with very little emotion either way. I know she's excited because she's very much looking forward to starting school. But, she's not tipping her hand at this point. This is so typical of Paige. She just isn't the kind of person to outwardly show a lot of emotion. I'm wondering how drop-off will be tomorrow. Will she just walk into her class without a care in the world? Or will she actually shed a few tears? I think this is exactly what Paige likes to do--keep everyone around her guessing. :)
I'll update tomorrow. I will be sure to add some pictures, too.
