I don't have any kids so I can only imagine how you must feel. At least she is ready!
Everything will be okay!

When I was a kid there was a family of 10 that lived behind us. When there last child went to kindergarten the Mom brought Champaign to the bus stop. There were Mom's there that were in tears watching there little ones go to school for the first time. She popped the cork and said, "Ladies, I've done this 10 times. You will be fine."

You should have seen the fireworks display when he went off to college.

Awww


Many good vibes for you to get you through your day

Make some Chamomele Tea (or muscle relaxants if needed) and take a nap. I bet when she gets home you'll share her excitement about her first day at school.

This may be a weird question, but does the school have a web cam? You can log in during the day and see her so she won't feel so far away.

My SIL (not the one I post about normally) bought a web cam for her school so she could see her daughters.

That's definately something to be proud about!!


But it's soo hard,, I SWEAR it feels like just a month or two ago, I brought her home from the hospital, wrapped like a little burrito, and now she's soo big, and goign to real school with real desk and real grades, and real homework.. and oh no,, I'm crying again..

Okay, I'll walk you through it. Go talk to the Librarian, and ask if they have any web cams that they aren't using. (Most schools have them but don't really use them) Ask if it's possible to set up a web site for your daughter's class. It's not that hard.

In a few months you'll have what you need.
