Beauty Shop

Keira and I played beauty shop while Brock was asleep yesterday morning. Although the first pic looks like she was miserable, she really enjoyed this. It was her idea - okay, not rolling her hair, that was my deal. She was worried they would be too hot, so I only warmed them up and then she wouldn't let them stay in long enough. Then, I got the bright idea to use a curling iron on her. She actually sit for a few minutes, but not long enough for me to finish the job. She was more determined to be the hairstylist and fix my hair. Needless to say, I sat in the floor while she "curled" my hair. She then rubbed my feet with foot cream and put lotion all over me. What a girl - she loves to put clips in my hair and spray stuff in it, much to my dismay. She doesn't realize when I tell enough spray - she wants it her way. Imagine that!! She is at school right now and I have to go pick her up in about 30 minutes, it is only 5 minutes from the house. I really struggled this morning leaving her b/c she was crying so hard and clinging to me. It broke my heart and I just wanted to give in and say forget it, she is coming home. I even thought maybe I made a mistake sending her this year, she did just turn 3. It was all I could do not to break down myself and cry. The teacher took her and was holding her as I left. Funny thing is, Brock would love to stay. I couldn't put him down because then I would have 2 kids crying. One to stay and one to go. I know down deep this will be good for her, but I cannot bear the thought of her being so upset over leaving her, even though she has a wonderful time and is great all day after I leave. Homeschool crosses my mind at times, but being a PE teacher throws that out the window. I would have trouble being still and teaching at home all day. I would rather be playing with them and besides my academic skills in certain subjects are not that great. Just ask my husband about my grammer and certain vocabulary words. HA!!
