She's 7!

Ok, I clearly remember this day seven years ago. It really doesn't seem like that long ago. But here she is the birthday girl
Doesn't she look excited? Well her first question to me this morning was"Can I open my presents now?" So I guess she knew what it was all about. So after she ate breakfast, she did just that!
She was actually excited! I love when that happens! But her favorite of the day was her BFC inc doll!
Look at that cute girl! She also got to share homemade Oreos with bright BLUE frosting with her class! And all friends she came in contact with afterward! I made her a cake that totally fell apart, so we will not be seeing pictures of cake time! Happy Birthday Emma Lu!

Off to School...Off to School...

It is that time again. I really can't believe it! Well, today is the second day of school for Kass and Em. Where did the summer go? Well, yesterday was the first day and Kassidy was just plain nervous(I don't think her thumbnail survived!) and Emma was excited. Kass had to make sure that I would walk in with them to find their classes and lockers. Emma was holding my hand on the way in until we got closer to the school then she dropped it. I asked her if she was too old to hold my hand and she said "It's kinda embarrassing." She's now too cool for me! (Tear, sniff sniff) Kassidy was stuck to me like glue until she saw her friend Katie, then I ceased to exist. Growing up is so hard on me!
Kassidy came home and said that it was all good and she still felt like a 3rd grader most of the day, but was NOT excited that she had homework on the first day. Then she left us to go play at a friend's house. Emma had to tell me over and over how awesome Mrs. Henry is and how she would never yell at them. Then she and her friend disappeared downstairs to play. They didn't miss me at all! Once again, growing up is so hard for me! But I'm happy they enjoyed and didn't complain about going again today. I think when we run out of new clothes, the fun will be gone!
