My mama's boy started preschool today. I can't believe how fast he has grown and how fast the years have flown by. More importantly, I cannot believe we dropped him off with NO TEARS!!!!! This is the kid who cries at every drop off and is red faced with swollen eyes when we pick him up. Today he acted like he was 4 and owned the place. He ran in, gave his teacher a hug and sat right down and started playing with some cars. I actually had to go over to him to kiss him and say goodbye. Then he waved to Tanner and I when we were walking out with a happy face. This little guy never ceases to amaze us at how smart and grown-up he seems. I am so proud of him for going off to his Froggy class happy and all grown up!
I know some of you see Kenzie's sign in this pic and might be wondering why she is on round 2 of holding that up. No, it is not just because she wanted a sign because Carson had one. We started Kindergarten all over again today! We found out last week that she was getting moved to a brand new K class they created to alleviate overcrowding in all the classes. Big win for the school - smaller classes for everyone. But another bump on the road for us - moving to a new class, new teacher, new friends. It is a good thing we have a bright, lively, outgoing Kenzie-Bo as our daughter. She did a lot better with this transition than mommy did. She came home excited and saying she made two new friends - yay! I feel confident this is part of the path God is sending us down in order for her to wind up in the exact right place for her this year. We are excited for the change and hope Mrs. Roberts is the best K teacher ever!
Overall, I feel emotionally exhausted from all the change and transitions over the past several weeks, but I know our babies are in good hands with these teachers and I feel blessed and happy to have them. Here's to hoping we have a fabulous school year!
