The End Is Here

And no, I’m not talking about ‘LOST’ here (although, I am a huge ‘LOST’ fan and could write many pages about my profound & overwhelming sadness on seeing it all come to it’s final conclusion tonight). The end I AM referring to is my daughter’s last week of school. My sweet, little peanut is about to finish her first year of preschool and boy did it go by fast. So incredibly fast!

We have loved watching her grow into this amazing, independent, smart “big girl” over the last 9 months. We have loved her wonderful teachers, who have tirelessly given their caring devotion & nurturing support to these tiny tots. And we have loved her fabulous school – an extraordinary community of educators that is based on simplistic values and fostering the joy of learning.

So now we have the summer, and what I hope from the bottom of my heart will be a fantastic & memorable 3 months, laying ahead of us. Come September, we continue on at the same school. Then, it’s kindergarten. Then we head to first grade, and before we know it she’ll be asking for the keys to the car, right? Phew, I can’t even wrap my brain around that. I have a feeling I’ll be repeating the following sentence quite a bit to my little princess: “please, please, please don’t grow up too fast!”.

Party Planning = Busy Week for Mama!

So, I haven’t written a post in almost 1 1/2 weeks….and ‘ya know, I can’t even believe how incredibly fast that time passed. It was Miss Ella’s birthday last week, and between visits to school, making cupcakes and putting together the details of her party, I kept rather busy every single day! Yeah, some may question that previous declaration, as our little soiree for Princess Ella only consisted of family (which is very small) and our friends who live next door….but, here’s a little secret for you – I’m incredibly ANAL when it comes to party planning! And not just that, I’m a bit OCD when it comes to ~~needing~~ having everything be perfectly put together…..which naturally also includes making sure my house is a vision of impeccable cleanliness. I know, I know. In the end, is it really worth all that pressure and work? The answer is: YES. Because it’s the only way I know how….and it’s who I am & how I’m wired. And it’s simply my desire to be an awesome Mama who gave her little girl a great birthday party! Besides, how cute are these??:

(Of course, I also made time to find a perfectly fabulous new top, as well as fit in a hair appointment - and I’ll defend myself here by saying the hair appt. just happened to work out that way time wise. What can I say, it’s the fashionista in me!)

Here are just a couple of pics for your viewing pleasure….behold the cuteness that is Princess Ella’s birthday!
