Since school started two months ago Olivia has been frustrated with how awesome Kindergarten is and the fact that she is NOT in it!
It all started with school supply shopping. I was hoping this would be a quick trip to Target, but turned into a battle, and Olivia's first realization that Ethan was moving on and she was not. Of course I allowed her to pick out a few new supplies for school, but that was not enough! It was the list that she really wanted.
That day finally ended and then she realized that he got to eat lunch at school! I am choosing to pretend that she didn't throw a MAJOR tantrum that only two year olds should ever get away with, and tell you that she expressed her frustration yet another time.
It seems that as time has gone on she finds more and more things that Ethan gets to do in Kindergarten that she doesn't get to do in Preschool.
Well, this week is Parent Teacher Conference week. A week that Ethan gets home at 11:45 everyday. A week that he doesn't get to eat lunch at school, and a week that she gets to wave goodbye to him on her way school in the afternoon.
Needless to say this has been a VERY good week for Olivia. Finally, she has won! At least on her own mind!

As the only little girl in a group of almost 3 brothers, I am glad she got her day to feel glorious!
What a beautiful Olivia you have...
All to soon she will realize the uncoolness of eating lunch at school...
I would have gotten way better grades if I would have just stayed at lunch and not been off doing who knows what....and being l-l-late!
Sounds like Olivia has her mamma's feistyness!
And, it doesn't get better - 'cuz Ethan will continually be doing things that she's too little for. We struggle with the same issue. Good luck!
I'm glad that Olivia got to have "her" week! Hope you guys have a great Thanksgiving!
that is a BEAUTIFUL picture of olivia. LOVE it!
