My Babies are Going to Kindergarten!!!

OK, OK, I knew this day would come. My twin girls will be starting kindergarten, and I must say I am trippin’ a little. First of all, I’ll have to get them to school on time–a major feat–just ask anyone at their pre-school. Let me just say, “Perfect Attendance” is an award that they just may never get.

Next, they put them in separate classes–can you say “separation anxiety?!” It’s mainly me because so far, they’re taking it like champs. I guess we all need a break from each other, huh? I just hope their teachers are on the same level. Remember when we were in school and you had three teachers for the same grade? One teacher was mean, one was nice, and the other really indifferent.
Well, in this case…”Separate but equal” is a principal that this family will be subscribing to.

My visibility and participation at school will be monitored and noted. I’ll take my shift at the concession stand during the games, be the first to arrive at Parent-Teacher conferences, be the President of the Booster Club, and raise money with fundraisers that reward $1,000 in candy sales with a $50 pizza party.

I guess it’s “big girl time” for all of us. Time to suit up and get in the game.

There will be challenges for all of us, but please make no mistake…mama’s crazy, so “don’t start none, won’t be none.”

My, they grow up so fast!

Until next time…Peace
