The Big Day


Today's the day my baby girl has been waiting for all summer. She finally got to ride the bus.
When I woke her up this morning, I said, "Bailey are you ready to ride the bus?" She sat straight up with a huge grin and said, "Yes!" I'm sure the novelty will wear off, but for now it's a great incentive to get her out of bed.
I didn't expect to cry, but as I was walking Bryant back to the house, somehow the tears just started to fall. Guess it's to be expected. A phase of her life is over as of today. So many phases to come.
I miss her already.

How exciting! Jonathan is going to ride the bus this year. Last year we were 2 minutes from the school so I just took him. It beat having to have him ready an hour earlier. I don't know who is more nervous about the bus riding-- him or me!!

I'm not sure I could have handled the whole bus thing. I would have definitely shed some tears, too!
