Soft hearted...

I went to pick up our girl from school Friday and she burst into tears when she got into the car.

I was so surprised...

 I said what is wrong?

Are you hurt?

Did someone say something to hurt you?

Is someone else hurt?

She kept saying no. No. No.

I said then what is it?

She said in a very high pitched voice between sobs.

Today was Mrs. 'Teacher's' last day!!

Um... Duh...

Mom of the year here..

Her teacher is having a baby on Monday.

Today was her last day at school for the year.

I've only known this was coming the ENTIRE school year.

So... While I polished my Mom of the year trophy,

I talked to her and tried to calm her.

 I told  her how wonderful a blessing it is that Mr. and Mrs. 'Teacher'

(names have been changed to protect the innocent ;) 

were going to receive on Monday. And that their son was going to be a big brother.

They would have a little girl in the family now.

She said I know. I know. *gasp for air sob sob*

I KNOOOooooooWW...

But she won't be there the rest OF THE YEAR MoOOoOOoOOOOMMM!

Geeez.....

I get it.

I do.

She proceeded to burst out in sobs at least three more times before bed.

I let her get on the laptop and hold it in her lap on the couch for awhile.

(that is a big deal - they are only allowed toset it on the table)

I captured these images between sobbing outbursts...



I hope you guys are having a great week.

By the way...

Mrs. 'Teacher' had a successful delivery on Monday and she and

'Baby girl Teacher' are doing fine.

And so is my Baby Girl :)

Ciao,
