I just received confirmation that Raven's application for Prep enrolment has been accepted.

Yay!

Also, omigod, my daughter' going to Prep soon!

*ugly cry*

I'm not going to ask where time has flown but that's not to say I'm not wondering about it. I mean, didn't she just celebrate her 5th birthday last May? Didn't I just watch her going down the bouncy slide holding hands with her new bestfriend, pigtail braids flying around her chubby cheeks as they whooshed down in glee to a laughing pile at the bottom?

"Mama, on my next birthday can I do it again at the playcentre?" she asked.

She didn't have to. I would do anything for this kid.
