it's so hard to say good-bye

it truly is.

Today was Morgan's last day at her Day Care. Yes, it's that time. We start her new Day Care on Monday. These last 2 weeks have really flown by and I hadn't anticipated how sad it would be to walk out of there knowing Morgan wouldn't be going back there again. Not so much for me... but for her. I mean, she's spent more time at that place with them in these last 12mths than she's been at home with me. At least she wasn't sad. Ignorance is bliss. All of her teachers got lots of hugs from her this last week and especially today. They even had a little party for her! :) It was so sweet. They had Pajama Day and had lots of snacks all day. Her friend Julia (well, her mom Karla actually) got Morgan a Fisher-Price Purse like the one Julia has that Morgan was so infatuated with earlier in the week. That was so sweet! Julia has been one of her BFF's for a long time now... well... her whole life basically! Mrs. Amanda and Mrs. Leah were pretty sad too and I had to scold Mrs. Leah not to cry when we were getting ready to leave. Those 2 have taken care of Morgan since she was only 6mths old... that's 9mths. So, it was hard to leave them. They got Morgan the cutest little book and wrote her little notes on the inside. So sweet and I hope she keeps it always. :) I did give all of her favorite teachers and Karla my information though and I hope that they all do keep in touch. It'd be nice for Morgan to still have them in her life.

So, that was that. It sure is hard being a parent. Trying to make the best decisions for your family as a whole and your child personally. I know she really loves them and that place truly does feel like home to her... but just because she's grown attached doesn't mean it's the best place for her. I don't think.

Karla went during lunch time and took photos of all of them and hopefully I'll get copies of the pictures soon... once I do I'll edit them back into this post. :) Those will be wonderful to have as a reminder of her time there!

So, here we go (fingers crossed) hoping that Morgan handles this bit change ok.

It's so hard to say good-bye...
