This boy was looking up at me with his big grin. My heart just melted. I'm not gonna lie.... My eyes may have been a little watery just wait till what daddy gets to put up with his first day of school !! One cute/humerous story about Kindergarten orientation. One of the screens came up listing all of the 'options' the parents had for their child to get to and from school. Holdyn thought it was a list of choices, and you got to pick from whichever he thought was the best. He heard "car rider, bus rider, walker, after school program... etc etc" He looked at me and whispered very seriously "Im gonna walk mom. I will walk to school and I'm gonna walk home". I couldn't help but giggle. He was flat out serious. After we got of the orientation, I had to really explain to him why he couldn't walk. He still didn't care. He was walking... rain, sleet, snow, or hail. It didn't matter how far it was.... he knew.... and he was still.... walking!!! So now we have come to the agreeance that he can walk home..... from the bus stop!! And he can walk in the morning.... to the bus stop!! I will take him the first day and help him find his classroom and get settled. I will beg to take him/pick him up the first week. We will see what he allows. I'm not too keen on sticking a 5/6 yr old on the bus. I would worry and have to hold my arm down not to call the school every second to make sure he got there O.K. every single day. Too many creepo's out there these days. Sad but it's true.
Seriously where have the (almost) past 6 years gone??
It was just yesterday............
That I remember this sweet little thing!!
Do you realize that I will have a child who is in kindergarten??? He is SO grown up and handsome. I don't know how he has gotten so big. Makes this momma sad. Very sad. Her baby boy.... mommas sweet love muffin!! I have always been excited about the 'next chapter' in his life, however, I am NOT looking forward to this... at all! I might change my mind after him being home for summer break.. HA!
I am going to be a COMPLETE trainwreck mess the first day of school. At least we have all summer to spend together :0)
.... and a child that will be in 2 year old preschool....
What in the world is this momma gonna do with herself??!!!
