We call daycare School in our house, so no Brinn is not already in Preschool. Next year she will be! Today was the first day of the Big Girl Job as I call it. Bitter sweet I'll have to say. I woke up with knots in my tummy praying that I've made the right decision to teach. I asked God to show me in multiple ways today that this is all right, and that this was HIS choice and not mine. He got me where I am today.
Knots in my tummy I got ready for my first day. Woke Jono and Brinn up and headed out the door. We drove to Brinn's new school which is located about two blocks from my school which is so convenient! I feel so close to her :) I need to tell you Deb is amazing. They had colored their sidewalk with chalk welcoming us to school!! The door had a sign saying WELCOME!! It was the sweetest thing! They had a sweet little Bin for Brinn to put her things in so comforting. (that was the first thing that God poured down on me!) Next, Brinn started to play and pretty much forgot that we were there, we kissed her goodbye and out the door we went. The tears didn't pour till I got in the car... pure JOY! Grateful that she didn't scream and yell and get scared. She was comfortable and relaxed.
Then the second piece came in I actually was excited walking in the doors of school. Excited to see what this year will bring for our family, excited to meet my sweet little Kindergartner's, excited for the year God will provide for me in my profession. As hard of a decision it was to choose to work, today was worth every minute of God pouring his GRACE down on me reminding me that nothing matters in this life but the path we choose to take and my path is definitely with Him. "All the glory goes up to him and all the blessing fall back down on me!" Gabby Douglas Amen sister.
These are all pictures Deb took and sent to us!
Love you all!!
oh my goodness, she looked so darn cute. Adore this post, love. If you get a second, I'd love to hear your thoughts on my latest post for Lauren Conrad. xo

Since we live by the school you teach at, I wonder if Brinn is going to someone in our neighborhood?!?! What street does Deb live on?
