Middle School Makeover

We went to orientation on Fri. am for Hannah's new school. MIDDLE SCHOOL...how is this possible? I vividly remember her first day of kindergarten..now this. I think I might have whiplash...life is moving too fast. She decided that she needed a new look for school. I tried to discourage this, as I know my sweet one is rather impulsive with her decision making, but she has persisted over the last couple of months and today we went and cut her hair. As her mother I believe it is the most adorable haircut on her. The girls at the shop were giving her cute ideas for little clips to wear in her hair and such. Really cute. She was so brave and sat there calmy while our wonderful stylist made her even more beautiful. She looks so stylish and trendy. I hope that she continues to have the self confidence and spirit she has now. She doesn't care that everyone else has long hair....this is what she wanted and she save her money to get it done. I then treated her to a pedi. Always a relaxing experience, then lunch, school supply shopping and then home. I am exhausted and still have other things on our list to get...tomorrow after church...please I can't go any longer today!!!!!

Claire had to get her last catch up immunizations yesterday and has been a real bear today. She keeps pointing to her leg and saying "owie...doctor" It makes for a little harder day for everyone. I am sure she will be much better tomorrow. She will be starting at our Mother's Day Out program at church on Sept. 5....I am sure that will be more traumatic for me than for her, but she will also really enjoy it too. I must remain strong at drop off time.
