my oldest, kate, started kindergarten today.  i didn't think i'd be emotional, and i wasn't - until the bus doors closed and drove away with my baby girl inside.

i'm fine now.  jack doesn't start preschool for another couple of weeks so the house isn't empty yet.  i think i'm going to be teary when she gets off the bus at 4pm today - she has this huge new world that i'm not a part of and i'm going to hear all about it when she gets home.
