I can’t believe that this little munchkin is starting kindergarten. It seems like just yesterday he was climbing in this planter. I’m excited because he is excited. I’m excited to have a little guilt-free time for me in my day each day (can I get a witness?)! I’m a little sad and nervous because I’m a mom.

I’m trying to be a tough girl but I had to fight back the tears at open house tonight. I told him I would probably cry and he let me know if I cried that he wouldn’t come home – ha. Then he told me not to worry because he invented a machine (imaginary, or course) that would keep me from crying while he is gone. Isn’t that precious?

I guess I will not be alone because our school is offering a Sip n’ Sob in the cafeteria tomorrow for kindergarten parents – isn’t that a hoot? It will depend on the degree of my sobbing as to whether I will join or not. Don’t want to totally embarrass myself the first day!

I know there are more serious and urgent prayer requests out there but if you think about it please whisper a little prayer for our family. Probably wouldn’t hurt to lift up all the parents, students and especially teachers (thank you for what you do)!
