First Grade

The first day of school.  Last year, I cried.  A ton.  It was so hard to send my baby off to kindergarten, letting him go on his own.  I didn't think I would ever make it through that long, long first day.  I couldn't believe how quickly he had grown up and I was terrified of the days ahead.

This year was easier.  It wasn't easier because I will miss him any less than I did last year and it wasn't easier because I'm less nervous and scared for him.  It was easier because I know he can do it.  Somewhere along the way, I realized that I'm not as sad that my baby is growing up, because I'm so incredibly proud of the kid he's becoming.
