The Last One Gets On The Bus {back to school}

Yesterday my baby girl got on the school bus with her sister *sniff sniff* 

She is starting Kindergarten and C is in 1st. I have not been truly all alone in 7 years so yesterday after they got on the bus, I actually felt almost abandoned. I knew I would cry, and I did. I have every year since C was in Preschool, but I did not think I would feel so lonely. M has always been my sidekick, my buddy, my lunch date. The one I snuggle with on the couch after C would go off to school. 

I didn't realize how much M and I do together until after she was gone...and it was only the first day! I think once I find my new routine and "independence" i'll be okay. As for my girls, they are perfect. They loved the first day of school and were even more excited about day #2.

C & M getting ready to board the bus with the neighbor girls. The four girls became so close this summer, they love each other like sisters.

A new school year means bento lunches are back! I kept it simple, but it still sent a message. My girls are my heart so I found it fitting to make them heart sami's. Also packed in our Easy Lunchboxes is baby carrots, purple grapes and pretzel thins. The girls are excited because I told them I just ordered new two new ELB Coolers for them. One in Pink and in in Purple, their favorite colors!
