I thought she would cry. She didn't, I did.
I thought she would ask me to stay. She didn't, but I wanted to.
I think this was a bigger step for me than it was for her. I think I missed her way more than she missed me.
SO how did this all come about? Well.... Aurora's best friend goes to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and is always telling Aurora how great her school is, and how much fun she has and Aurora really wanted to go to school as well. (She also wants to go to ballet for the same reason.)
It took me a while to get on board with the idea of giving her up, even if it is just 8:30-11:30 Tuesdays and Thursdays. But this week when a spot became available, we went and signed up. She is going to Beautiful Savior PreSchool, its just down the road from our house. That made today her first day of school!

| "My School!!" she says, jumping out of her seat. |

| "let's go mom, Cheese" |
 |
| one small step for her, one giant leap for me. |
