dear me.

please keep it together tomorrow.

just be proud of her.
let her enjoy her big grown up moment.
enjoy it with her.
know that she's ready, even if you aren't.
that's all that matters.
yes, this chapter is finished. and it was amazing.
but another one is just starting.
so look ahead tomorrow.
be grateful for the memories you made while she was still little.
god knows you took enough pictures to help you remember them.
you can do it.
it's a good day.




*i survived backpack day. not one tear. i'm sure i'll be totally fine.*
