First Day of School!!!!

Alright, so this morning was the first day of school! He woke up and came in there and asked to play the Wii, I said, "Well, we can play that later because we need to eat our breakfast, and he said, " That's right mom, today I get to go to school!"He was excited and of course that made me feel better! I was a nervous wreck don't you know! So we ate and got ready and he showed Poppy his new shoes that light up and how fast they made him go and then we got his little spider man lunch box that he so sweetly helped me pack and his little or big back pack, they all look big on the little people, and we headed out the door! Patrick and I of course had the video and camera! He was precious and I was so proud and I really just could not believe my eyes, my baby going to school and ready to go too!! He didn't mind getting some shots with mom and dad and then he walked in the room and we hung up his stuff and he sat at his little table and was just as content and looking around. He had his little sack with his name on it and they all were supposed to bring something from home that they really liked and show it the first day. So my buddy brought his snake, not a real one! He loves to play swamp people and zoo keeper and stuff and literally loves his pretend snakes, so that is what he had for show and tell!!! I took one last picture and he gave me a thumbs up. When he does that he is usually excited and so I knew I could walk out that door, but man was it hard!!!! I cried for about 30 minutes and then I was alright! I didn't let him see me of course!!! On the way back home Patrick said, "Well, he is a man now!" Time goes WAY too fast when they are little!! I can't imagine what our own parents feel when they look at us with our own children you know. I even saw little man Tate on the way out. He is adorable and I of course had to get his picture! So when 1:00 arrives I will be waiting on my big baby to come out that door and let me hear all about his first day of school! I can't wait!! This was definitely a milestone for all of us!!!!!!
