Nursery

Kasidee's First Official Day of Nursery was yesterday. Can you believe she's that old already? It's been hard having her "sit" with me while I'm in Primary or "sit" with Quentin while he's in Elder's Quorum, so we've been kind of looking forward to the time when she could just go have fun in nursery. But once she was in there and my arms were free, I really started missing her! But I am SO thankful for such awesome nursery leaders - they go above and beyond their calling and want to make sure nursery provides a foundation of loving to learn the gospel for the kids (as opposed to feeling like it's just babysitting time). Kasidee did great - Quentin stayed with her for the first little while then left and she was fine. Sister Weaver said every once in awhile Kasidee would go over to her, tap on her legs and say, "Mama? Mama?" But she didn't cry. And when we picked her up at the end, she dropped everything, smiled SO big, and ran to us with outstretched arms....

And speaking of my baby getting big.... Yesterday evening we went to see my cousin Aaron's newborn little boy, Beau. My "baby" looked HUGE compared to him! Oh, he's just a cute little peanut. It's so fun seeing Aaron and Lisa as new parents. And little Beau is just so darn cute. It's just amazing how wonderful life is and how quickly time goes. It reminds me to be more aware and more mindful of the little things!!

Ditto, Kelly! I keep forgetting that Kasidee and Kaylee are exactly the same age. Kay started nursery a few weeks ago, but she cries for the first half until snack time, then we can sneak out. Give the girl a pretzel and she'll be just fine....
