I realized she isn't a baby anymore ...

Today I was picking up Mya at school like I always do and the sight I saw almost brought tears to my eyes. Mya has been going into her "new" class periodically to help her with her transition to the one year old class. She will be offically in her new class starting on Monday, August 31.
When I walked into the room today the room was filled with the laughter and noise of about 8 one year olds. The teacher had the bubble machine blowing all over the kids and they were one by one trying to jump around and pop the bubbles as they filled the air. In the midst of all that excitement there was our Mya, my Mya was standing tall, bouncing around trying to get her share of bubbles to pop. She was laughing and pointing at the bubbles that were popping on her fingertips. It was one of those innocent moments that I will never forget. It was in that moment that I realized, my baby is no longer classified as a baby, she is a toddler! Needless to say she was having so much fun with her new friends, she cried when we had to leave.
