Out of Elementary School!


It just seems like yesterday that I was looking at this face:
 She seemed to grow so fast and before I knew it
 She was celebrating her first birthday!
 It wasn't long until she was leaving for her first day of Kindergarten!
While waiting for Caroline's bus to drop her off after her first day of kindergarten, I was able to take one of my favorite pictures of all time:
I love how sad Carter looks as he waited for the bus--we both felt really sad and lonely that day!

Despite my best efforts she didn't stop there
 First Grade
Second Grade
Third Grade
 Fourth Grade
 Fifth Grade

Today Caroline finished 5th grade and had her promotion ceremony

I'm not sure I'm ready to start middle school I'm ready to have Caroline start middle school.  Caroline is an amazing girl and I know she will have a great time in middle school.  I'm just having a hard time not picturing her like this:
But as her mom, I think I might always see her like that.

Love that girl, and love being reminded of her through the years. It is nice when they grow up to be someone you can be proud of! You certainly did.

I cried when Harris graduated from Elementary school! Congratulations to Caroline, but I am sure a sad moment for you.
