And, if you can read it and the journaling doesn't make you at least tear up then there's something wrong with me 'cause the tears were just runnin' as I typed it...
**Edited to add journaling:
I have to let go just a little more today... The first step of many down the long road to true indepdence. Not that there haven't all ready been times when I had to step back, and watch you learn something for yourself, but none of those moments seemed quite so big.
I'm still a little dazed each time I gaze at you, and wonder how something so gorgeous came from me. While you have your moments - like any other child - of meaness or pettiness, overall you are a loving, giving, caring girl. A child of true beauty inside and out.
Today we register you for kindergarten, and in a few short months you'll be off to your first day of school - alone.
New friends...
New interests...
New moments...
Love,
Mommy

I also have another that I saved as a QP because I'm waiting on new photos of Jaylin to complete it. I'll probably be giving a freebie in the next few days. As you can tell I'm feeling a little more myself. Still not all the way back, but better!
I should go grab a shower before the kids get up as I have a ton to do today including LOs! Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!

Lovely layouts. Unfortunately I couldn't read the journaling.
The first layout is STUNNING! love what you did here!! I really enojyed looking at your blog!
Gorgeous layouts! And oh yes, I remember registering for kindergarten and all the thoughts that raced through my head. It's such a bittersweet time! Your journaling is very poignant - you did a great job capturing those emotions!
~sniff~ Awesome layout Cate.....yep, it brought me back quite a few years...Have a great day..see you tomorrow!!! {{HUGS}}
Wow!! I can barely see to type through the tears. Aren't those the best kind of layouts? The ones where you just pour your emotions into them. Great page!! I'm sure you made it through the day just fine. I'm hitting a blah spot myself. Hope you are doing better, I know it's been tough few months for you.

I hope you are getting your mojo back girl. As you have seen (giggle) I have been feeling the same way. I have been forcing myself to do CT stuff and that is sooo unlike me. I'm starting to feel myself again though.
What gorgeous LO's! The one for your daughter is beautiful...beautiful journaling. :) Oh and I LOVE those pictures of the birds at the zoo. What zoo is that? Is it close to us? Well I hope you have a great week. I'm sorry I have haven't commented here in a bit :( ((HUGS))
