Kindergarten

It is here.  Tomorrow is the first day of Kindergarten.  I really don't know how it is possible.  I look back at the past 5 1/2 years and it has flown by.  In the beginning, the days were long and I "wished" time away...when he is 4 months he won't be colicky, when he can crawl he will be happy, once he can talk I will know what he wants...  I would do so much to have that time back, it is hard to remember it sometimes.  Already.   But, for the past few years, I have been very cognizant of how fleeting our time is.  How special our days together our.  How lucky I am to be a stay at home mom.  The days have flown by.  I have known this day was coming, but I am not ready.  I hope I have done a good job of preparing him for the "real world".  I love my little buddy so very much and I hope he knows it.  I hope he knows how proud I am of him and that I will always be here for him no matter what. Today marked the end of an era and tomorrow marks the start of a new one.  I am excited, happy, nervous...so many emotions.  I am trying to keep it together.  Good luck tomorrow, buddy!  Mommy loves you!!

Note:  If I have to send him off to Kindergarten, I am glad that he will be spending the day with a friend. Someone who cares for him and will take great care of him.  Someone I already feel comfortable with and trust.
