Alyssa's Surprise Back to School Party/Fun day














Alyssa is starting kindergarten next week and it is a little bitter sweet for me. I am happy for her because she is so excited about starting "BIG KIDS" school, but I am a little sad because that means no more Mommy and Me days for Alyssa during the week. I have expressed my feelings to my child and she hugs me and says, "Mommy you are a big girl, you will be fine when I start school".
Well, since I have so much nervous/anxious energy regarding the first day of Kindergarten I decided to give Alyssa a surprise back to school party. Alyssa woke up to a decorated dining room and her favorite donuts and chocolate milk. My child is very animated like me, so when she walked downstairs she started screaming and saying "THANK YOU MOMMY, YOU ARE SO SWEET". After eating donuts we went to our school's back to school parade in our neighborhood. After the parade she had a hair appointment and then we had lunch. We took an afternoon nap and then we went to take back to school cupcakes and balloons to Jonathan and Nia (LaToya's kiddos). We ended our day at our new elementary school for Meet the Teacher. Today was such an awesome day. Alyssa really had a good time. She was really appreciative and grateful for everything. She told me that she wishes today would never end because she has had so much fun. :-) Thanks for reading my blog and see you next week when I post first day of school pictures.
