First Day of School

Today was the first day back to school for Lyddi and Hannah.  Lyddi is in 8th grade.  When she left this morning to go to school I cried.  My baby is growing up so fast. She is starting to look more and more like a young woman instead of a kid.  She is going to have a very full year.  She is talking Advanced Science and I hope and pray that it doesn't kick her butt.  She is going to have to buckle down and study and get her work done. She is also taking Algebra I, she is also a mentor for the 6th grade and she is in junior beta club.  I am very proud of Lyddi and I know that she can do anything she puts her mind to.  Hannah is starting the 5th grade.  She is growing up so fast, I sometimes forget that she is 10 because she is so small.  She is growing, just at her own rate.  Thank goodness she is learning Karate so she can defend herself is need be.  She is amazing with her Karate and she loves every minute of it.  Hard to believe that this will be her last year at the Elementarty School.
I am a natural born worrier, I worry for my girls all the time.  I am so hoping that this year will be good years for them.
