First Day of School…

Today is Maya’s first day of middle school. I think she’s okay with this new phase of her schooling, but she’s also kind of sad about not being with the kids she knew in grade school. Since she went to a charter school from 1st to 5th grade, the kids who attended were from all over the area. And that means they are all going to middle schools in different cities and will probably not see much of each other – even though she’s still going to do Girl Scouts.

Anyway, in one of those “Where does the time go” moments, I want to know how Maya went from riding a tricycle…

To piloting a boat…

To striking a pose for the camera (after her friend told her to “pose for the camera”).

I feel kind of old right now…

  1. Pickney sure is growing up lately…

  2. The time slips away fast! I’m confused too. Where did my baby go. I almost with Z. and Maya were going to the same school.

  3. Yep, time has a way of getting ahead of you. My babies are growing up too.

  4. I hope she has a good year and makes the transition smoothly. She is such a beautiful girl.

  5. Sigh. I feel ya man. Totally. I can’t wait to hear about her first day.

  6. I think a lot parents are going through what you guys are right now. Hope Maya’s first day back to school was great.

  7. She’s has definitely been growing up hasn’t she?
    She doesn’t even hide under the table anymore when we come over for dinner!

  8. Surfed in via J’s blog. Wonderful photos and memories. Time certainly does fly by so quickly. Looking forward to hearing about how her first day went!

  9. She is such a lovely girl. I think I bought her that denim jacket she is wearing on the trike.

  10. Mom, you did buy her that jacket…when she was born! You didn’t care at the time that it was WAY too big, you had to have it for her. And she got a lot of wear out of it. 🙂
