First day of preschool

WOW, my baby girl is already starting preschool!!!  I can't believe she is old enough to go to school.  And, in true Abbie fashion, she tackeled herr first day like a champ.  We walked in and met her teacher, Mrs. Flemming, for the first time (she had a stomach bug on orientation day).  Abbie stayed by my leg for the first few minutes but quickly warmed up.  When it was time for me to leave, I expected tears (from both of us), but I promised myself that I wouldn't cry in front of her.  And she didn't cry in front of me.  She was so brave, just said "bye mommy" and off she went.  I held true to my promise and didn't cry...till I got to my car.  Then the water works took off.  Where did the time go?  Where did my baby go?  When did she become such a little girl?  I can't even begin to describe how proud I am of that little girl.  Always so brave, always so sweet, so loving, so smart, so perfect.
