Make that ten.


I'm oh so pleased to announce
that my pirate, Robs,
will be attending Kindergarten in the Fall.
(Oh Happy Day?)


I'm so relieved.
And panicky.
And excited.
And panicky.
And grateful.
And panicky.

(How is she five? Already?)

I hinted at it in previous posts... but the truth is,
in our area there is one acceptable public school.
(As in, they use exactly 0% of 0 paddles.)
And two Saturdays ago,
in a blessed turn of events,
we found a house, that is not only within the school boundaries...
it is across the street.

As in we can walk to school everyday.
As in I can watch my pirate at recess, (should I be so inclined.)
As in I can tell my ultra panicky
first-time-mother-of-a-kindergartner
heart to slow down a wee bit,
because in reality Robs will be less than a block away.

I'm pretty pleased.
And panicky.

And now for a fun fact?
It's our tenth move.

TENTH.
And now that I type it,
I feel like it deserves a banner and balloons...
Maybe some flowers.
Definitely some kazoos.

I'll let you know how it goes.

  1. AGH! I'll scream for you! I've done nine so I can only imagine what I would do if we decided to move again. The real question is how many years have you squished ten moves into? Good luck!

  2. Good luck with moving and having a kindergartner. It is hard. I've started two in school now and it's not easy. My heart feels like it's being squeezed by a vice every time I drop them off!! BUT they have both been ready and grown so much. I'm sure you'll both come to love it.

  3. Yay! I'm so excited for you! A school that close with 0% paddles has got to be worth the 10th move!

  5. Yeah for the decision and finding a house!! Moving kinda sucks, but I also love it at the same time. We've moved 7 times, so you blow us outta the water at ten! But really, I'm so excited it all worked out in your favor for this one.

    And great pic!
