Emma's First Soccer game

Emma had her first Soccer game on Saturday September the 8th. Their team is called the Soccer Monsters. Their uniforms aren't in yet but they are going to be purple and white. You know I was hoping for pink ....oh well. Anyway, lets just say that Emma will not be making soccer her occupation. She likes being there and playing with the other girls, but as far as actually playing soccer......she isn't really into that. She stands there looking around and if the ball should come near her she is sure to get out of the way. Oh well, her mother and father aren't exactly athletic either so she comes by it naturally. I guess we will encourage the dance/singing/musical instrument route.

First Day of School

Well, on August 22nd Emma started Pre-K 4. She is going 5 days a week from 8:00 until 3:00. When we decided to do this last year, I thought it was going to be great. Well, it is great....for Emma. I have to say though that I am having some difficulty adjusting. I didn't think I would be one of those mothers who would have a hard time. I think that part of it is just that it seems like such a turning point in both of our lives. She is my one and only child and now I will NEVER have a preschooler again. Done, finished, never to return. How very sad is that???? Almost makes me want to have another child. Just kidding.....I will learn to deal with it. But I am sad to think that my little girl is growing up and is now in school. I know that I will blink and she will be grown. Here are a few pictures of her big day.
