still at work due to the long taxi times, there must still be some weather in the area or en route for most of the remaining flights waiting to take off. i will probably be here about one more hour or so.
i get a kick out of my daughter and her enthusiasm with Pre - K. she still has that little bit of apprehension when we walk to the school, even though it is only across the street from our house. the Pre-K classes enter through their doors which lead to the playground / school yard, this way you don't have to walk through the school to get to the classroom.
once we get to the school yard and she sees all the other kids, she starts to get excited about class. when the teacher opens the class door, i become chopped liver, as she is off, barely pausing to give a hug and a kiss.
i stay and watch for a few minutes as the rest of the class files into the room, just in case she has a change of mind. no, this will not be the case. she promptly marches to the back wall to hang up her backpack and jacket, and then sits down in the "good morning" circle with her classmates.
when they are infants, you look forward to them becoming toddlers. when the are toddlers you look forward to them becoming little kids. right now, i want her to stay like this, at the age of "enlightenment" for kids. i know it wont happen, but i will cherish this time in her and my life.
