Hi everyone. Stephanie here bringing you another day of Bliss.<\/p>\n

I will be completely honest with you as today started off far from blissful.<\/p>\n

Today was full of tears and attitude.<\/p>\n

Today marks a very big day in my eldest daughter’s life. Today is her last day of Kindergarten. Gone are the days of playing and napping. Ahead of her is a full day of school. It is overwhelming – even to me. How on earth did I get to have a First Grader? How on earth has she been on this earth and in my life for 6 whole years? How did this blonde haired, blue eyed, freckled kid get to be in First Grade? I feel like it was just yesterday when I was potty training her.\u00a0 Or that first year and all those doctor appointments and immunizations and not to mention the specialists due to failure to thrive.<\/p>\n

I mean, I<\/strong> am very overwhelmed.\u00a0 And I am not sure if she was or what her deal was this morning, but as I bent to kiss her little blonde head, being very aware NOT to get any lipstick onto her precious forehead – she snuggled into me and the tears just started flowing.<\/p>\n

So whether I get out of her really what her deal was this morning or not, it was and still is a momentous day in her little life.\u00a0 Kindergarten brought with it a lot of firsts.\u00a0 A lot.<\/p>\n
