The days are flying by for me. As my oldest child finishes 5th grade and my youngest child finishes 1st grade I have very mixed emotions. Next year KK will be the "big men" at school. Her school only goes to 6th grade and they will be the "Seniors"! She is very excited about this and I think scared. Em in contemplating being at the school without her big sister. Now, let me say that this little girl DOES NOT need her sister for protection; but, KK has a way of taking care of everyone and especially Em. Without her even knowing it, KK keeps up with her and keeps tabs one her, leads her in the right direction and just all around looks out for her. Em is so sweet and definitely not a trouble maker, but definitely in her own little world. Yesterday, for example, the girls' plan was to ride the bus home; they usually do this once a week. KK gets on the bus, no Em. She doesn't hesistate to tell the bus driver, "I gotta go get my little sister". She just knew. She knew Em wasn't in any kind of trouble, she just knew she probably had forgotten. Sure enough, she heads to the 1st grade hall and there stands Em, "I knew you'd come get me and tell me where to go"........what more could I ask for. Two little girls that honestly trust each other, love each other and care about each other. Can you see me smiling????....Thank you God.
