sniff sniff sniffle

Well my baby is officially 5. I just can't believe it. She's really 5. She had her Birthday party and Pump It Up in Hartville. Everyone had such a good time, all except for the vinyl burns on their arms, legs, and butt. Yes, Delaney managed to get one of those burns on the bottom of a butt cheek, and she wants to show everyone. Nice huh?!

Delaney got a lot of clothes (thanks) for her birthday, perfect for kindergarten. She also got lots of money can you believe this kid got $70 bucks. I remember just getting as many dollar bills as I was old, not 70 bucks at the age of 5.

This week I took her school shopping, *sniff*. I was crying on the way there. When I looked back at the lil girl singing Taylor Swift songs in the back seat, I then realized that she will only be this age so long, she's growing up. *sniff-sniff* Loosing teeth, turning 5, starting school. I just can't believe the last 5 years have went by so fast. I'm not ready to let go of her yet. I'm not ready to watch her jump on the bus and leave for school. I'm worried about the things she'll pick up from other kids and the things she'll learn. She's so innocent, So good, I'm afraid she'll never be the same. Here I am tears streaming down my face, thinking my baby is going to turn into a monster or something. Truth is I'm just scared of sending her out into the world. Although she is a good kid. I am so very proud of her. I can't wait to she what life has in store for her.....but she'll always be my Lil Laneybug!

I am officially bawling my eyes out.
