First and Last.......

Today is Brooke's first full day of Preschool for the new year. She was sooooo ready for school to begin...she has such a great imagination and loves to soak as much in around her as possible. I am happy but also a little sad today. This is her last year of preschool, then she's off to BIG GIRL school with Chase next year. MAN.....where has the time gone. Like my friend Kelli says, "the days are long at times, but the years are short." SO true!!! It's so easy to get caught up in the stress of daily life , to the point that you just wish the day would just end....sad, huh. At the same time I find myself trying to live in the moment and capture all the memories I can. Strange. Today has already been one of those days.......Poor Chase has a cold and is feeling tired, but off to school he went (the flu season has yet to come), I took Chase to school, then we dropped Spanky off at the groomers(he is still on medications and has new licking issues now), my gas light came on in the midst of all this, so now I had to squeeze a trip to the pump in. All of this BEFORE my hugo diet coke, mind you!!! Dropped Brooke and Sloan at their school, ran by the bank (got yet another Hugo diet coke:( ) made a call to my doctor................and here I am. I am SO rambling on, you don't really want to hear all that, so anyway, enjoy the pics from Brooke's first day. Sorry grandma Rogers, Brooke insisted on wearing those clothes instead of her dress from you.........picture day instead!!
