Where has the time gone?
My baby started pre-k yesterday. He looked like such a big boy in his little uniform. Today we got his bookbag and I told him he could choose. I knew he would probably pick a Super.man design…boy did he ever! That bag he almost as big as he is! My husband was about to make him put it back but he was too late! The boy had already put it on and was pretty much glued to the thing.
Yesterday as we dropped him off, I lingered outside of the classroom thinking I was gonna cry…I just got a little misty. My husband tries to act all in control but I caught him a few times smiling to himself and I knew he was thinking about our son.
I am crazy. Our kitchen looks like Cost.cos! I knew we would need to pack our son’s lunch but I think I went waaaay overboard. I have fruit cups, juices, waffles, cereal packs, string cheese, cheese crackers, etc..so much more. It will take my 4 year-old the whole school year to finish all of this stuff. I guess I just got excited!
Hey, too excited is WAY better than too blase. Good for you!

Aw, ain’t that cute? Little man is excited about school. And Andrew is right, it’s a good thing for him to be excited.

Aww.. Pre-K? I bet he’ll come home with all sorts of stories!!
I tend to go overboard with the beginning of the school year! Better to stock up tho!

First day of school is amazing isn’t it! I still remember when I was the first day of school for me and how excited I was.
