Tomorrow I’ll be letting go of my little man’s hand yet again as he starts 1st grade. I know it’s first grade and I should be ok with it and I am in a way. On the other hand I keep asking myself where has the time gone? From the time I was pregnant and his time as an infant, toddler and now he’s a full blown kid. He’s got his own opinions, he dresses himself and he is his own person. Makes me proud and makes me sad. He’s lost all of the teeth on the top row and his new teeth are coming in.. I think the coming of the adult teeth make me think- “Oh lord he’ll be a tween, then a teen, and then an adult!!” It’s just too much for me right now. To think the teeth set it off for me. LOL My oldest baby is growing up right before my eyes and I can’t stop it. The same thing every mother goes thru.
I’ll also be taking Ezra to a Mother’s Day Out program starting in September. He’ll be going three days a week for just a few horus. He’ll have a little backpack and a lunchbox.. they even asked for supplies! Yeah that was funny..Not! You can expect a post on his first day next week. I think that will break both of our hearts equally but I know this will be good for him and he won’t cry as much when I leave him. He’s so attached to me, other than a few friends, he’s never really been away from me during the day. This will be a nice routine to settle into.
My babies are growing up.. It’s just the way it goes right? We bare children, we raise them and we let them go.
Just a little rant and ramble from a sad yet excited mom. I promise I won’t dance a jig when I push him into his new classroom! LOL
I hope you’re children have a wonderful school year this year! Everyday is a gift and seeing them grow before us is such an awesome experience. I’m so happy to be a mom.

This was more of a rambling of a mom.
