I can't believe my baby is about to start school! She still seems so little, but so grown up at the same time.
We've booked her birthday party at Butterfly Creek and she's picked her birthday cake out of the AWW cake book, and written out all her invitations, she's so excited. And on Friday she has her first orientation day at "big school"! Time is just going too fast! -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

wow I think the first going to school is always the hardest... well it was for me I didn't want to leave Josh there - then when Brooke start she told me she could go by herself on the 3rd day - thought I had at least a week but nope  
But Maya must be so excited. ------------- Ann

OMG Ella will be so proud and excited, she thinks Maya is cooler than Princess Fiona! (and that's high praise in this house!)
I'm just so weirded out, Maya isn't *that* much older than Ella and she's so grown up, writing and going to school... Surely my girl isn't going to get that grown up, right??! ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:

The school visit was great, I am soooo proud of my big girl! She doesn't know a single soul there but she was so brave! Her teacher's name is Mrs Collins and she is in Room 0. I sooo can't believe I am a "school Mum", it feels so weird! I was saying to Willie at about 2am this morning, I'm not ready to let my baby go, but I can't wait for the gremlins to start school lol!
Will post pics later. ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)
