Where did the time go? I still want my sweet Savannah all to myself but instead have to share here with the school district in September. This has been a rough week for Savannah as the transition finally sunk in. Many times she would break down in tears saying, "I'm going to miss my teachers." " Me too," is what I was thinking.
Savannah was lucky to have a wonderful Brandywine experience with the perfect teachers and classmates. Our choice, to hold her out of Kindergarten last year, paid off. She has blossomed, broken out of her shell and is becoming a kind, compassionate (already had those two qualities in the bag) and confident girl. I couldn't be more proud of who Savannah has become.
I will miss dropping Savannah off at Preschool everyday, chatting with her teachers and watching her interact with the other children. I remember her first day of school. I was so worried she would cry but she didn't. She was so brave and walked right in (she saved her crying for a later date). This, of course, transpired while the twins were in the NICU. It is baffling that I will drop Lila Grace there next year. I guess it is a full circle experience.
Today was Savannah's last day. A big day it was.
We curled
She passed out programs
She sang
I cried
I tried to keep Lila's stage presence to minimum but she finally snuck up to her sister
She graduated
We posed
And then we were off to Sesame Place (without a camera this time in order to just enjoy the girls and not make them pose every two seconds).
We ended the day with neighbors and a mini celebration for our big girl.
