I am so torn, one part of me is excited for Anna to be starting first grade tomorrow, another part of me will miss my best helper and baby holder.  Then there is the part of me that can't wait to get the one who gets Katie's biggest screams out of the house.  There is also the early start to my day and mid day interruption to ad to the muddiness of my emotions.  I love Anna, she can be worth her weight in gold but also almost the most infuriating child I have ever encountered.  She is brilliant, and organized, and self driven almost too much.  So, today we went to get the last few wardrobe items she needed.  She got some cute black boots, some pants, some brown leather mary-jane's, and I got a small rug for Ben to get his crawl going.  Hard wood floors are slippery when you are trying to figure out how to get your hands and knees coordinated and also quit unforgiving when you fall.  On that note, I was blogging yesterday when Benjamin decided to take a nap,  I left the computer on and went to start a load of laundry.  When I got back he had woken up and was poking keys just like he watches us do.  He managed to make it so the top bar hides until you go to the top of the page with the mouse!  I took a picture, of course!
