I'm at work and I should be working, but I'm a little emotional so I thought blogging would help. I've been blogging a lot about just Dakota lately so I apologize, but he has had a lot of transitions these past few weeks. TODAY is his first day of "big" school. We had a little issue with his uniform this morning (meaning he didn't want to wear it), but then I explained that EVERYONE had to wear the same thing and that put him a little more at ease.
I was allowed to walk him to his classroom for this first day only. We both did just fine walking there (no tears or obvious anxiety) and he seemed content as I paused at the door for just a split second to give him a kiss and then turned to walk away. I wasn't expecting my tears to come so freely or so quickly at the very moment I turned my back to him to leave.
Just another day I suppose that I will mark on the calendar as "memorable."
P.S. HAPPY 5th BIRTHDAY AYDEN & HAPPY 9th ANNNIVERSARY JOSH & STACY!

I did the same thing with Seth--the first of much "letting go". He had only ever been under my watchful eye and it was hard to hand that over to someone else I hardly knew!!
He looks so cute in his uniform. What a wonderful mother you are.
Awww...my mom cried with me my first day of school. It is hard to see your baby grow up.
