Here we go! Jalina's 1st day of Kindergarten....

Do you think this was easy for me? I cried like a baby. Jalina asked me why I was crying and I told her that I was just happy. Deep down it is because I could still picture her at Mass General 3 months early 2lb 2oz and holding on to survive. Now look at her...What a MIRACLE. For all of you that went through this with me, isn't this amazing???? I am so proud of her and I have to give alot of credit to myself as well. I may be strict, but she is an example of what I teach. She is such a good kid and so ready for her 1st day of Kindergarten. I remember 2 years back when I enrolled her into a private pres-school and on the 1st day I was at work and had such a melt down. I couldn't stop crying. I even called her Pediatrician and asked her how to cope with this. I was sick all day. Mind you her Pediatrician is a private office and she is such a wonderful woman and so personable that I felt so comfortable telling her that I was beside myself. People at work laughed at me but I don't care because until you are in the situation, then you have no idea. Don't forget, Jalina didn't come home for 3 months. I had to come home with no baby so when she did come home it was hard to let her leave again. Now you see why I am so crazy about my baby GIRL.... This ones for you Jalina. I love you Mama and you are my shining STAR.... Te Amo Mucho xoxoxoxoxoxoxo
