The First Day of Kindergarten
Dear Preslee and Mason,
The truth is that it has all gone by way too fast. Wasn’t it just yesterday that we heard your heartbeats for the first time? Wasn’t it just yesterday that your Daddy and I were trying to wrap the idea of having two babies around our heads? Wasn’t it just a couple of hours ago that I was changing your diapers? Didn’t you just hold out your arms and call me Mama this morning? I want to hold you in those moments for just a little while longer.
There is so much change coming. I remember this part. This is where my forced letting go begins. This is where you begin growing up. This is where your independence begins. I am so proud of you both. You will take kindergarten by storm! You are fearless. Everyone that meets you loves you! You are amazing in ways that you cannot fathom.
I am sitting here typing through tear filled eyes because I know where this road ends. A parent’s job is to raise children that make the world a better place, to be humans that we wish we could be more like, to fulfill their potential and exhaust their dreams. I will be your biggest cheerleader, no matter where your passions may lead and I will always be here when you need to come home. My heart will ache; it may even break, bursting with pride and love for you, my baby girls. Be patient with me.
We begin a new chapter. Your first day of kindergarten will be one of the hardest mornings of my life but you will never know this. I will not cry in front of you and I promise to keep my collapsing in a pool of tears out of your line of sight. I am sad for the letting go but glad to have had you to myself for these first five years, my sweet little girls.
I love you more than you will ever fully know. Someday, when you have a child of your own, you will know why I hugged you just a little longer than I should have when I dropped you off on your first day of kindergarten. You will understand why I lingered just a little in the doorway before saying goodbye.
Love,
Your Mommy

So sweet. You're the best kind of mommy! And you'll see...they'll get along fine and so will you! Let me know when old Uncle Mark can sit in on a class or two! xox
Yup....I am crying! What a wonderful note to your beautiful girls. They are so blessed to call you mama and you are blessed to have them! Good luck tomorrow....I'll be thinking of you. I cried this am when the big girls got on the bus....but it was easier! Hang in there!
Okay I am crying too. I still can not believe they are in kindergarten.. I swear they were just eggs last week. I will never get how excited we were just knowing they were eggs..and then not one but 2 sweet little girls..I will never forget coming over the first time to see them with Bonnie when they were both still in the top of the pack and play..and watching them grow into such wonderful, amazing, thoughtful, caring girls they endear themselves to everyone they meet. They are such a joy and you my dear Laura are a wonderful amazing Mommy! Love you all

Lots of memories flooded back in my mind and heart as I read this. Seems like just yesterday I was dropping my girls off at the door of the school. You were like Preslee...bursting through the door ready to take on the world. Amy was like Mason...a little bit unsure of herself. But she caught on and so will Mason. I understand your pain and your pride at the same time.Nothing in the world like a Mommy's love for her babies. You're an amazing Mom and you make me so proud. You've prepared your girls for this day and believe me...they will be fine. Lots of love and prayers surround those little ladies.
I love you Laura.
