Today my baby girl started her first day at daycare. It’s the same academy Paisley started at when she was 6 months. Lately, it’s been such a struggle at the store to get anything done. The last two months have been emotional and I felt like it was time. My plan was to keep her until May and then take Paisley out and put Scout in. But, they had an opening this week and today was the day to start a new journey with her. I have been so blessed to be able to keep her the last 9 months with me at Farm Girl. If I didn’t have my own business I am not sure what we would have done. I am so thankful to have had such a special bonding time with her every day at my store and will cherish those little milestones forever. It was getting to the point that she was just unhappy here and it wasn’t a place for a baby (almost toddler — ah that makes me sad) and she needed a better area to roam and play.

It feels like we were just enrolling Paisley in daycare and now we are about to enroll her in an elementary pre-k. Time flies. Paisley’s last day is next Friday and we will be doing a little tot school program that a friend put together all summer so she is ready to go to “big school.” I have been getting my back room at Farm Girl all “school ready” and am excited to teach her. I’ve been missing my Sawyer girl all morning but know that she is in good hands and will have so much fun playing with the other babies.
