Everything has an end.....and a new beginning!!!!
Daddy mention i didnt drop a tear because i was happy to get rid of her, SO NOT TRUE!......even little sissy try to follow Emily, they are such lovely friends.....but this is a journey Emily is going to start on her own....they will catch up later!
Another great thing is i can come and visit her anytime i want, and become a volunteer too...i try to be by lunch time, but because this first week they are going home earlier, i missed it and had some time at recess....
she was a little sad, ans when i approached to her she just start to cry really hard.....i couldnt understand what she was saying.....the i catch "i hurt my leg".....and more and more crying.....i hug her and she calm down quite.....but after the day was gone and i pick her up, she was happy again and told me she made 2 friends, Karen and Seven....yes seven!.....what was really funny was that her teacher is Mrs Ford, so for Emily to remember i told her it sounds like Four, so she is Mrs "cuatro"....she laugh so much about that (but she doesnt want me to say that at school)....and now she has a friend "siete"......
A painful day for mommy finally has arrived, anxiety, fear, and most of all, emptiness.....who is going to fill my little Emily's place?....Sophie?, some i guess, but the "partnership" and bonding that lately has been amazingly growing?....i am going to miss her....
Somehow i feel it is not fair, after all the time, fights, non-sleep, psychology, and else; to mold my little one to be a respectful lovely girl......they take her away from me!!!! just NOT FAIR.... 
We had an "Open house" a day before school....it is a wonderful time to meet teachers, children, and the school itself (if you didnt went around before-like me) and have some Ice-cream at the end!....We had a meeting at the school before that day, but was mostly for parents to meet the Director and know more about the school, while the children went to play in the classroom..... that day i saw i lovely lady i meet when Emily was 2 years old (it really seems like a long time!), when she use to teach little children along with parents (like a pre-school) for a couple of hours....her name is grandma Judy.....
I felt better to know that she will take care good care of Emily, she was so happy to see us and told everybody about Emily.....Judy has been volunteering at that school for a long time cause many kids went to great her, big hugs and kisses for "grandma judy"....from 6 to 10 years old kids.....i felt the love! 
Judy was so kind to show us around the school....and oh my God!, what a big school!....Holmes Elementary had something around 450 kids and just teach primary level.....and as far as i know they have 3 classrooms for kindergarten.....She show us the library, the music, computer, art classrooms, and the gym!....the lunch room too (my baby is going to buy her own lunch!!!) and we met all the teachers on our way.....and because they are not allow to bring money the kids use "security cards", they need to learn their password and parents can put some money in those kind of credit cards.
i think i did great after all, i keep my cool and let Emily had an amazing experience at her first day...It was nice to see neighbors and they kids around...that is a rule here, is like a neighborhood school....we are going to Holmes school because is in our area....how lucky are we??......

This is her 3th day, and already the sub-director, her assistant, and the teacher knows me well.....Today I let emily to walk on her own to the front door, while i waited some steps behind....She keep herself at the door and didnt went all the way through so i had to help her, inside we saw all the kids going in just one direction (probably to the Gym cause it was rainy), and when i ask if everybody was going over there (meaning all kindergartens include), the assistant told me yes, except from PARENTS......probably noisy parents like me! ha, ha!. they know me already dont they!.....and school has just started!!!!!
