Kindergarten

It is official, both of my boys are in school. Yes, I know Ry has been in preschool for the past two years, but now he actually attends an elementary school. He has been so excited for school to start, and he is sooo ready.

I have to say that I took him today with mixed emotions. I was so happy because it made him happy to be able to go, but as any mother of a kindergartner will tell you, I was very sad!

I am having a very hard time sending Rylan to school. I had not planned on him being my last child, I had always planned on having more kids. So I had it in my mind that I would be going through all of these milestones again, so in my mind this wouldn't be the last time for all of these experiences. It's very hard realizing that this is the last time I will get to see the excitement of a child going to school for the very first time. I wish I had cherished all of his other milestones more and made the most of these important times in his life.

So, even though I am sad - how could I not enjoy this cute boy on his very exciting morning?!Such a proud big brother :)

What could be better than having one of your favorite friends in your class? Their back-pack hooks are even right next to each other. They were very happy to have each other there this morning. Rylan & Kassidy
