Big Day Tomorrow

Tomorrow is HUGE day....

FIRST DAY OF KINDERGARTEN!!!!

I can't tell you how excited T is for Kindergarten to start. Her teacher's name is Mrs. Cabezas, who seems really nice. We have everything together and ready to go. T brings a blanket and small pillow to school. While they don't nap, they do have quiet time when the put their heads down on the desk for 20 - 30 minutes. They will do this until January, when the go cold-turkey and there will be no napping or quiet time at all.
I hope not to jinx anything, but things are going OK at 123 street. My mom's bed in the Fla room, so far, is working out well. Dot and I are praying that it continues. She goes to Houston tomorrow, so its just me here if things go to hell.
Meanwhile, I deal with stress as I always do...I go shopping. I have a small a/c pipe leak which needs to be sealed. While I have the handyman here, I'm going to have him install a new toilet and new sink. Also one of those nifty curved shower curtain rods that make it feel like there's tons more room in the bath.
Lastly, T has some big, big news to share. Her hair is finally long enough for her to wear a pony tail. In the past, she's been stuck with either pigtails or a top knot. She's been eyeing Dot's ponytail for years now, and finally has gotten there. Of course, she would have had a pony tail a year ago had she not taken scissors to her hair, but that's another story.

So, the excitement is building, and I'll make sure to get lots of photos of her first day of school. She insists on wearing a ponytail to school, and she's currently debating whether to wear a headband with it, or not headband.

Boy, I long for the days when my only problem was whether or not to wear a headband!
