Whoa.

Ginny, tomorrow is your first day of preschool. I am feeling very emotional about this, excited in some ways, and nervous in others.

We decided to go with a co-op preschool, it's the right price and it allows us to be really involved. I suppose really what's making me nervous is the idea that your world is going to be expanding very quickly.

You will be going out into the world and having experiences that are just your own. While this is a wonderful and necessary thing, it's the end of an era.

It is the first of many many steps in you becoming your very own person, and in us making way and letting go for you to do so.

I am so proud of the kid you are: funny, empathetic, strong and kind and am excited to share you with a bigger world.
