Many mornings I would push her out the door to wait for the bus way earlier than it was due to arrive. <br /><br />(This kid by the way is now 24 and a delight.....more than I could even dared prayed for.)<br /><br />I now work as a kindergarten aide and I can honestly say we love them all...but those angels? Those angels make our days. Parents love their kid no matter what....others have to work at it.<br /><br />I vote for this one.<br /><br />Not that you can throw the other away...haha.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18244507266596613034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-57935748213292021792009-09-18T18:41:46.199-07:002009-09-18T18:41:46.199-07:00ME TOO!!!
