Last Day of School




It is the end of an era. Hannah has been going to daycare with Mommy since she was 6 months old. Having only a month of pregnancy left, it is time for Stacey to quit work and relax. While the door is not closed, she probably won't go back to work there even after Ben is born.

Hannah learned a lot in her 21 months of school, not the least of which is how to hold her own on a playground filled with older, bigger kids; but the most important thing she got out of the experience was her first friends. Her closest friend there is Jenna.

These two go way back. At last year's Halloween Party, Hannah and Jenna both came dressed as cheerleaders for their favorite teams.




It figures that as soon as Hannah and Jenna are finally able to understand and appreciate what it means to be friends, they should be pulled apart. Time will tell whether they keep in touch. They both still talk about each other and an open play date invitation has been extended. Whatever happens, these two have played an important part in eachother's lives.




Being so far from her family, Hannah already knows what it's like to miss someone, but I don't know if that will make it any easier.
