Dear Canon,

Dear Canon Camera,

Thanks for not working today. You distracted me from being too sad about sending my baby off to her first day of school. She did great though, unlike you, she was fine with her adjustments and she fulfilled her task. Thankfully we have many good examples around us, like Blackberrys, that teach us how to work properly!

Love,
Mary




Haley was so excited this morning to go to school. When we talked last night about the new chapter ahead, she said she was a little nervous and a lot excited! As a mother, of course I am a lot more nervous than excited. Everytime fear steps into my head, I have to remind myself that God loves Haley even more than I do. He has a perfect plan for her and instead of worrying, I believe He wants me to praise Him that Haley is able to go to Kindergarten today. She is physically, emotionally and developmentally READY.

Another funny thing I don't want to forget is her response to my question "what are you going to ask your teacher on the first day?". She said, "I'm gonna ask her when we get to do homework and ask her if she is a Christian". Oh my, we already are going to have to have a talk.

Oh my goodness. Kindergarden! And I love her question for her teacher. How did that go over?!? I wish I could have been a fly on the wall on that first day of hers. What school is she going to? And does she already have best friends in her class?
