Missing Mackenzie

Dear Mackenzie,

We are transferring you to a new school in the fall, which you have known about for awhile and are actually excited about because you already have several friends from nursery school and pre-k who already go there. You have broken the news to your friends at your current school and they are sad but I know their moms and can plan play dates with them. The person who took the news the hardest was Ms. Deep, the aide who loves playing with you every day and always gushes about you when she sees me. I told her today and this was her reaction: "What? Mackenzie is not coming back? No. You cannot take my Mackenzie. You can take another girl, you can even take Sawyer*, but you cannot take my Mackenzie." Hahaha!

Love,

Mom

*Yeah, let's not tell Second GuhGaw she said this, eep!
