This Is the 1 Photo You Will Wish You Took on the First Day of School

Updated on Sep 12, 2015 at 1:02 PM

We all love our kids and definitely miss them when they go to school and spend the whole day without us, but let's be real, mamas — we don't hate the newfound alone time and freedom, do we?

Jessi Kittrell, a professional photographer, got her daughter ready for her first day of kindergarten this week, and though she admitted in her Facebook post that she'd miss her ("maybe?"), she couldn't resist taking the above photo.

Jessi is pictured with her cocktail supplies at the ready and a hysterical "Bye, Felicia" sign in her hands — all the while her daughter is playing along with her "First Day of Kindergarten" sign and an eye roll.

We think this photo is too funny and may just have to re-create it with our littles!
