I only made it up thru the fifth grade

Back to school is tomorrow.
Noodle. 5th grade.
Flop.
Can't believe my child is THIS BIG.
Too late to stuff her back in.
Gone are the days when she was the size where her tiny head fit in my hand and her little legs straddled my arm at the elbow.
She is almost as big as me.

She is so excited.
Ready to ride that bus and eat the school cafeteria food!
New friends. New adventures. New life in the Bat Shit Crazy Town.

This weekend its all she and I.
A little end of summer bash.
Movies and food.
We'll talk of new things and starting over and how exciting change can be.
We'll watch Gilmore Girls and eat chips and dip in bed.
We'll go on a long walk with the lads in the evening.
Just right down our street is where I went to the fifth grade and she is dying to see me do a flip off the apparatus that is still standing from my days there.

We also have family in for a visit. Barb and Bob! And they are always a hoot!
Poker and game night Saturday at the Farmhouse.

Love you all a million times over and under and up and down.
Life is wonderful.
