Back to School...Link up!!



NieNie is asking for pictures of our children returning to school. I must confess, Molly now returns to school by jumping in her car and speeding away
There aren't anymore pictures in school uniforms, or shiny, smiling, nervous faces. 


I love MollDoll's first day of Kindergarten pose. {I love it even though the sun is blinding me and my hair is large}. Those were the days when the beginning of a school year was full of excitement, worry, and new backpacks. 


If you read my blog you know I miss all that. Sort of.


Big Daddy snapped that second picture when I was having a difficult time letting Molly begin her second semester of college. You would think I would be more emotional the previous semester, but who knows? Perhaps it was my fear of facing a long Chicago winter without my little darling. Eventually Molly unwound my arms from her body and ran walked back to her dorm.


It's not easy being a Mom.
