| What?? I'm old enough for NURSERY!?? |
Today was Grace's first day of NURSERY!! I can't believe that she is old enough, and it was a little bitter sweet for Stephen and I.
We were so excited to be able to fulfill our callings a little better without having to chase her around...but I have to admit, I was a little sad to see my 'baby' waltz into nursery like she owned the place! Lucky for her, her cousin Livvy is already in there, and she was excited to go play with 'liv-vly'. They even walked down the hall to nursery together....hand in hand. It was ridiculously adorable.
My friend, Angel (nursery leader) said she did really well. Of course, she had some moments where she called out for me and Stephen...but was calmed down quickly. She even did pretty well when I had to come in to do 'singing time' with the kids. She fussed at first and wanted to sit in my lap...but then she started being Grace and sang along with me and even did all the hand motions. Leaving was harder, and she did cry...but it was snack time, and we all know how Grace LOVES snacks! haha
There is nothing better than walking into nursery after church, and see her bound up to me and wrap her little arms around my neck. She even showed me her color page she did. Her Daddy says he's going to keep it forever. And I think he means it.
Because...somehow....we are going to hold onto that baby girl of ours.
Don't grow up too fast, little girl. My heart can't take it!
