Cailey is turning 6

My sweet baby girl will be 6 tomorrow. SIX YEARS OLD! How did that happen. It just seems like yesterday I was a new mom and totally psycho about everything and anything that had to deal with her. I would lug around a huge diaper bag which had had every necessity to man kind and soaked up every little noise or whipper she made.

Then Cayden came around and we were all thrown into a mass chaotic world! Time never seemed to slow down afterwards. If he was sleeping I was trying to play with Cailey. If she was sleeping then we were all hopefully sleeping too!

Preschool started before I knew it and she was all of sudden this little girl that is learning stuff from somebody else and making friends that I had no influence over.

Preschool ends in two short years and now she is in kindergarten. KINDERGARTEN = big school. The school mommy teaches at, the school where 5th graders go to! Yikes. Now she is learning stuff from another new teacher and 500 other students. Making new friends, which once again, I have no influence over.

She is doing great. I am so proud of her everyday. I am excited for all the little accomplishments she is making. Counting to 100, creating a science experiment, clogging and performing in front of a crowd, girl scouts, swimming (actually holding her breath and swimming), earning blue ribbons at the fair, and many other little things.







She is very excited for turning 6...she has 2 loose teeth! Which is very scary and exciting for her. She will get to start 1st grade next year and be able to stay all day at school and ride the bus home every afternoon! Along with staying at school all day she will get to eat lunch in the lunchroom!

For me, turning 6 is just one more step growing up away from me :( I know is still have some time left, but I just hate every year that goes by. I miss shopping the toddler section and all the little things that go along with a little girl.

Happy Birthday baby girl....I love you!!!!

Now onto planning a Candyland birthday, with tons of colors and candy. Going to be a super fun special day!
