Amy sighed as she prepared Bailey's lunch. Today was her first day of kindergarten. She smiled as Bailey came down the steps, dressed in her school uniform. "Good morning Mommy," Bailey said smiling. "Good morning sweetie," Amy replied back hugging her. She took her lunch and looked inside the bag. "Tuna fish sandwich? What do I look like? A fisherman?" Bailey asked putting her hands on her hips. Amy laughed a little and shook her head. "You are just wonderful, and you'll have to take that for today," she said shrugging.
Bailey slightly smiled but then her smile grew wider as Matt came down the steps. "Daddy!" she screamed as she jumped into his arms. "Woah, calm down there. Are you excited for your 1st day of school?" Matt asked happily. Bailey shook her head. "No. I'm scared. I don't want to meet new boys and girls," she said as Amy laughed. "How come? You'll get friends and you'll be able to bring them over," Amy said as Matt put Bailey down. "Good morning," Matt told Amy as he kissed her lightly. "Good morning," she replied back. "Well are you ready to go?" she asked Bailey. Bailey nodded sadly as Amy opened the door. She kissed Matt one more time and left.
:: School ::
They got out of the car and entered the school. The first to greet them was the principle. "Are you Amy Dumas?" the lady asked. "Yes I am and you are?" Amy asked curiously. "I'm Mrs. Ramsey, the principle of the school," she said.
Amy smiled and asked her where Mrs. Hibler's kindergarten class was. "Turn left and when you see a long stairs of steps, walk past them and go to the last classroom," Mrs. Ramsey said nicely. Amy nodded and thanked her. She took Bailey's hand and walked to the classroom. Once she got there, she opened the door and was amazed at how colorful and decorated the room was. Bailey was amazed as well. "Mommy, is this my classroom?" Bailey asked nervously.
"Yes it is. Do you like it?" Amy asked. Bailey nodded as Mrs. Hibler walked up to them. "Hi. I'm Mrs. Hibler, and who may this be?" she asked nicely looking at Bailey. "This is my daughter Bailey Hardy," Amy replied back.
"Are you happy for your 1st day?" the teacher asked.
Instead of responding, Bailey hid behind Amy. "She's a little nervous," Amy whispered. The teacher nodded and motioned Amy and Bailey over to a table with four desks. "This is where Bailey will be sitting. Also at her table will be Jackson, Keenan and Ellen," Mrs. Hibler said smiling. Amy let go of Bailey as a girl with blonde hair approached her. "Hi I'm Taylor!" the girl said enthusiastically. Bailey went to grab Amy's hand, but noticed she was gone. "I'm Bailey. Today is my 1st day," she said unenthusiastically. "Well, you wanna be friends?" Taylor asked happily. Bailey nodded a little and smiled as Taylor grabbed her hand. She then walked over to meet all the other kindergartners. Amy smiled at the fact that Bailey went to meet friends. She sighed as she walked to the door to leave.
"Bailey honey, come give me a hug," she said opening her arms.
Bailey quickly ran over and hugged her. "I'll pick you up later, k?" Amy asked as Bailey nodded.
She then ran back with everyone else. Mrs. Hibler waved bye to Amy as Amy waved back. She exited the door quietly and sadly. She knew she was going to miss Bailey during the day.
:: Matt and Amy's House::
Amy walked in still saddened about leaving Bailey. Matt saw this and rushed over to her.
"What's wrong babe?" he asked worriedly.
"I miss Bailey already," she said sadly.
Matt chuckled. "Aww, I do too, but her going to school is worth it," he said hugging her.
Amy sighed and nodded. "You're right. I'll just miss all her hollering and smart remarks," Amy said laughing as she plopped down on the couch.
"Hey. I'm here to make your day better or did you forget about me?" Matt asked jokingly.
She smiled and patted the seat next to her. "I still love you," she said as he sat down.
He smiled and cuddled her in with him. "I love you too," he replied back.
