The countdown is on…

My baby starts Kindergarten next week and for some reason it really HIT me today. My baby is not a baby anymore. :(

Last night we were reading a book at bedtime and she started to recognize the words and read it to ME. She started screaming, “Mom, I’m reading, I’m reading!” Then this morning she put her tennis shoes on skillfully showed me how she knew how to tie them. “Make a loop, wrap it around and pull it through”. A piece of my heart broke right then and there. I no longer have this little girl sitting in front of me and no matter how hard I try to make it stop, she’s growing up.  Kindergarten next week is going to be insane. Look for my post as I will be documenting her from the moment she gets up! GULP!

Until then, here are some cute shots I got of her playing on our front porch the other night. :)

I *heart* Olivia

Makes you smile doesn’t it. :) * gotta love the wind blowing her little strands all of the place.

Another favorite. Hmm. I wonder where she gets that face?

Livy, I love you. :)
