Tonight we took a step towards the end of my life. Just kidding. We registered Asa for school. It really wasn't a big deal. We went to the school, gave them our paperwork and toured the kindergarten classrooms. Fun times. The funny thing is that Asa was a bit shy. He spoke quietly and walked reluctantly. Judah was excited. He charged right in and explored the place. Reuben also was pretty excited. He ran for the door every time we put him down. We had to hit up the playground and the bus. We even got a little ride. Asa and Judah were all smiles!
I can't believe that it's almost time for kindergarten. I suddenly feel a big responsibility. Yesterday I was just a mother of little babies. Today I'm almost a school mom. Man, that's a lot! I'm sure I will step up to that challenge. Somehow.
Oh, I know exactly how you are feeling!! It's almost surreal on the first day. The whole world seemed to scream out to me, "You're old!!" It's scary to trust someone else for so long with your baby, too. Even if your baby is five years old. :)
ReplyDeleteIt is sad to watch your kids grow from being babies into big kids. I miss the baby and toddler years, but it is fun to watch them grow and learn. I enjoy seeing them make choices on their own that I am proud of and seeing the friends they choose. Its a new phase of parenting, but it is fun.
