Last Friday the Gaylord Palms held a promotion for Friday the 13th (crazy huh) where the first 13 callers to call at 1:13pm would get a room for $13.00. My loco hubby heard about it on the news and called and was the 1st of the 13! So Friday night we stayed at the Gaylord Palms. It is gorgeous! There are tons of water features (it's a huge atrium with streams winding everywhere) and in the water love bug got to see huge coi as well as turtles and alligators. She had a blast! If that were not enough we went to the pool Saturday morning and they have several different pools-one specifically for families. The marine pool had an octopus slide as well as a little dry play area with a snail slide and the two splash pads. We had almost as much fun as love bug did and of course she didn't want to leave but we had to not only because of the check out but love bug had an appointment for her first hair cut. Don't freak out-it was only a trim. My wonderful hairdresser Trish trimmed about 3 inches off of love bug's hair and it looks much tamer now and nothing detracts from her gorgeous mane (biased much-yes I am). Then there was some school shopping and Wal-Mart made me very happy by having everything that we needed and enough cashier's on hand for a change.
So we had a very nice weekend and yet I am sitting here very sad. Our love bug starts preschool in the morning and while I am happy and excited for all that she will learn and the thrill of starting her education this means many other things. My love bug, my baby is growing up and growing up fast. I cherish every wonderful moment and have enjoyed all the stages of her growth, but it is still going to fast. Everyone says children grow up so quickly so enjoy every moment you can. I have done that and still, I need more time. She is my love bug, the little blessing we got to keep. I cannot have children easily and she is the only one we get-why can't I get more time??? My little one is indeed growing up to quickly, and that makes me sad. I am trying very hard to look at all the wonderful things to look forward to with this new chapter and I am happy for them, but at this moment I am feeling quite sad. Just wait until tomorrow morning-I will be a blubbering idiot.
That is all for now. I will post pictures of the new hair as soon as I can and if love bug's first day of school. Goodnight all!
