No stamping project in this post - that's coming later today - but I had to share a couple of photos of Emma before she headed out for her first day of 7th Grade.
We've had an amazing Summer together, and honestly, as much as I was looking forward to having the house and studio back to myself, I miss my girl already! I can't believe how much she has grown up in just a few short months.
Here she is all decked out in her carefully chosen 1st Day outfit, complete with the cool purse she chose at Fossil yesterday. THAT was a shopping trip to remember and I'm so glad Mark wasn't with us! He would have had a conniption! Emma was definitely being 'checked out' by two of the male clerks in the store and one of them was openly chatting her up.........Oh, my, she's only 12, people! So back off!!!
Thank goodness she was oblivious to it, THAT does my heart good!
I've decided that since I only have 5 more 1st Days of School left, I'm just going to enjoy them for what they are and soak in the memories. I know she's growing up fast and before we know it, she'll be off to college - but for now, I'm just going to soak it all in. So, if that means I'm sappy, then so be it - we only have her here for a little while.
You won't be sappy alone... I just realized after your post that I only have 1 more school start for my oldest... all summer I kept thinking I have one more summer with her and then she'll be gone... completely forgot about the first day of school...WAAH! We will be okay?? Right? IF life gets you down.. then just stamp!Thanks!
Look how grown up Emma is!!!! Tell her Hi for me!!
I was sappy over here, too! My oldest just had his last 1st day of middle school. Next year he'll be in high school! ACK!
Be as sappy as you want! I'll be right there with you! I hope Emma has a wonderful year!
