FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!

I know this is overdue considering that first grade... wait, wha??? FIRST GRADE?!! WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN?? It snuck up on me and kicked me in the shin and ran off... or that's how it feels like =P Anyways, back to what I was saying...

Cookie has now been a first grader for a month now (yikes!! A month?? ALREADY??... Apparently, I'm in awe at the speed of time... wish every work day went by that quickly, haha).

**I apologize... I'm easily side-tracked tonight... it's late but I wanted to post this**

Let's try this again, shall we?

SOOOOO.......

My little Cookie is a FIRST GRADER **tear, sniffle, sniffle** 

First Grader Cookie & Mama

Found Sophia's seat and settling in...

Soon after, the parents had to be shoo'd away... I would have stayed there all day if they would have let me, hahaha!


Squeezed in another final shot before all the parents were 'kindly' kicked out =P

I know I will be missing these days tremendously in the future... sometimes, I wish I could bottle up these moments and revisit them whenever I want... 

I squeeze and hold her tight as much as possible because I know it's not going to last forever... so, I might as well take advantage of it to the fullest extent for as long as I can. Also wish my memory could record every single moment with her, which would allow me to rewind and replay any part I want!

Whenever I go back to older pics, I find myself already forgetting certain things during her baby and toddler times =/ **Sigh** Kind of sad. As time moves forward, these days will soon be filed along with those earlier moments--the moments that I want to have the ability to hold onto and recall whenever I want at my disposal (wishful thinking). But in reality, we only remember so much and that is why I am cherishing these times whole-heartedly and living in the moment more than I ever have in my life.

And for those moments that I won't always be able to recall, I am so grateful that we're living in this day and age where pics and videos can be taken quickly and easily =) I am definitely thankful for that!! 

Well... until the next time...

~~ LOVE ~~
