Off to Kindergarten she goes!

Is is possible to be happy & sad at the same time? The last couple of weeks have been both excitement and pure sadness. My little girl is heading off to Kindergarten. I'm excited for her yet my heart is heavy knowing that her baby/toddler years are truly over (sigh). She is growing up. Yes, I know, everyone's kids are growing up but somehow when it's your own children it is personal. This coming Monday will be a mile marker for her (and us). She is about to start down the path to friends, homework, teachers, pep rallies, lockers, and field trips. I pray God's mighty hand over her as she begins her "growing up" journey. *tear & sigh*
