How well I remember the anticipation of that first day of school. Laying my clothes out the night before, looking at all of my school supplies, and for me, generally feeling sick with nerves! It is so fun to "relive" some childhood experiences through the eyes of your child. As I tried to pump Madeline to see how nervous she was about school, she looked at me and said "Mom, what do you think will happen? I'm not going to DIE" Pretty funny girl that one is. She jumped right out of the car with her backpack stuffed full of new supplies with a big smile on her face. No matter what she said I knew she was a little nervous, but still, she has more self confidence right now than I think I have ever had. As this is one of my biggest goals as a parent, I felt really proud today!
