Yesterday was pre-k registration for Lil Bit. She'll be going to the same school as last year (for preschool). It was nice on one hand to have an idea of how the process works and to know who the staff is. It was nice to sign up for activities and plan ahead. It's hard though, to know I have one short year of pre-k before my child is officially enrolled in school. She's grown up so much in the last year and learned so many new things. I feel like every time I turn around, she's managed something new. I used to try and write it all down...first steps, first words, first foods, first friends....and now I just hope to catch some big stuff like name writing...even though she writes it backwards. One day she did not recognize her written name and then the next, she's writing it. It's still nearly illegible enough that most people don't "see" it....but I do...that scribble that looks like an "i" with three "o" looking shapes behind it.
At any rate...I came home from pre-k parent orientation with a bunch of great things to read for the school year. I look forward to this year, as much as I dread what its end will mean.
