First Day of School - 2017

Whoo it's Friday is all I have to say!!!

Brooke's first day of school was Wednesday! 

Kevin came home from work early so we could both take her! 

The day had come whether she was ready or not!

We have been talking about school for weeks and weeks now trying to prepare her, but Tuesday night she decided that she WAS NOT going to school. It was a fight to get her to bed, kicking, screaming, not wanting to get into her bed and so on...

We woke up, ate breakfast, took a bath, ate lunch, took pics and headed out the door. She had no problem whatsoever that morning!

Look how big she looks!

Bubba wanted to go too!

Perfect first day of school weather!

She was so excited to hang her backpack up!

Brooke marched right into her classroom, and then we took a turn for the worse!

I had a feeling she would cry at some point because she has never been dropped off somewhere where she doesn't know anyone. She picked her name off the wall, washed her hands, and checked on her babies that she played with at meet the teacher night. I told her to have a great day and mommy and daddy would be back to pick her up. That is when she LOST IT!

Seriously it was heartbreaking...

The teacher asked me to leave so I kept my composure until I got to the car and then I LOST IT! 

I felt terrible for her. I knew she would have a blast, but I still was sad. 

Three hours later she came out with a smile on her face saying

"Mom and Dad, school was awesome today!"

 We talked about her day and took her to get ice cream!

Well... Thursday's Gigi drops her off! She was so excited to show Gigi her classroom and everything about school. When my mom said goodbye, Brooke lost it again... she was screaming GIGI, DONT GO! Mom called me crying! 

Geesh.... it breaks our heart!

I thought for sure she would be fine today, but nope... she cried, MOMMA DONT LEAVE ME!

She is so excited up to the point of us saying goodbye. I could start crying again just thinking about her being sad. I have received 2 texts from a friend who dropped her son off after we were there and she said that Brooke was happy and playing!

She says she loves school, but loves being home with mommy more!

Hopefully this passes soon because this momma's heart can't take it much more!

Time to go get my girl!
