The first day of Kindergarten

Dee started Kindergarten at a local Catholic school a couple weeks ago. I had this crazy misconception that after she was in school, life would get easier. I now realize how much I counted on her to keep an eye on Bubba when I was getting ready for work and how nice it is to have her around when choosing which outfit to wear for work.
She looks so cute in her little uniform and giant "Hello Kitty" backpack. The whole line of kindergarteners practically tipping over from the weight of their school supplies on the first day was so cute it would bring a tear to anyone's eye. I made through the first day ok, but the second day was the hard one. She trotted off across the lot to her class and I almost lost it. I can remember when her little foot was the size of her daddy's thumb. I guess this is just one of those things that happens. I raised this sweet little human only to send her off to the kindergarten wolves where she will learn words like butthead and start telling people to shut up. Sigh.
