In less than an hour I will load everyone into our mini van and trek over to our neighborhood school for Meet the Teacher night.

And while I’m thrilled for my girls (because they are serious school lovers), I am feeling a bit sentimental.

So…To my not-quite kindergartner…here are 10 things I love about you right now:

1.  Your willing smile and the way you scrunch up your nose.

2.  That you say you’ll miss me.

3.  That you have waited {almost} patiently as your sister has done everything first (and now it’s your turn kiddo…and no one can stop you!)

4.  How cute your tiny toosh looked in those skinny jeans I bought you when we went school shopping today.

5.  Your little accent (once Brooklyn…now more Boston) that is sure to catapult you into the wonderful world of the speech resource room.

6.  The way you love your siblings.

7.  How your favorite food in the entire world is a tuna sandwich.

8.  The determination in your eyes to do everything your sister can do {and do it better}.

9.  That you tell me you’ll always be my baby.

10.  Your adorable voice singing “The Sun Will Come our Tomorrow” or “It’s a {Hard Enough} Life”.

Thanks for the 32 seconds on the front porch little stinker.  You owe me a session soon   Knock ‘em dead our little Jule.  You’re a big kids now!
