Bradyn's Last Year Of Daycare

Well, actually, as Kevin has already pointed out to me it's technically not really Bradyn's last year of daycare. When she starts kindergarten next fall, Bradyn will still be in before & after school care so I guess if you want to get technical, we have entered our last year of full-time daycare.

Although many of her friends have moved on to kindergarten or other daycares this year and she has lots of new classmates, September brings no real difference to Bradyn's day-to-day life. Having said that, I can't help but think how different things will soon be. We did do a little back to school shopping (new shoes, new slippers, new lunchbag, a few clothes...), and I couldn't help but be the cheerleader for getting Bradyn excited about being the oldest in her class and helping all of her new friends learn the ropes.

Although I forgot to take pictures this morning, I managed to convince Miss B to pose for me after dinner. (Thanks for the reminder Sherri!)

Very excited about showing off her new dress that she has fondly nick-named her Belle dress (because princesses wear 3/4 length sleeves).

Her casual Sears pose.

Checking to ensure her hands are strategically placed over the blue Jell-O stain from lunchtime...

What a big girl.

Yep - I'm 99% percent certain that my blog posting 1 year from now is going to be pretty sentimental and weepy.
