It's just before 6, the Lass is restless. I know that she will wake sooner than later and that her excitement will carry her through the morning. Which it did. Eyes open at 6:15 she is talking, playing with the cats, and "nervous."
Third grade.
She took her first steps 9 years ago. Today those long, toned legs took her through the doors and into the first day of a new school year. Without much of a look back, she disappeared into the building to take her place.
She will start this year with a fun willed summer behind her. A summer of experiences and laughter. A summer of friends and travels.
Yesterday we closed a wonderful summer with friends at the pool. There were tents and splashes and lots of laughter. There was a new restaurant and the joy of eating with chopsticks.
For my wee lass, it has been a summer of maturing. It has been a summer of preparing her to be in 3rd grade with lots of home work, learning through reading, and late nights traveling into the city with mom. This summer I have watched my daughter move a little bit further from being a little girl, even glimpsing the adult woman that she will be one day. (And what a beautiful woman she will be)
