kindergarten

I can hardly believe that my oldest is off to kindergarten. It feels like just yesterday that Marcelo and I were bringing him home and oohing over his cute little chubs. Now he seems so big and independant, everyday I look at him and he seems older with no way for me to slow down the process.

I will admit that I was the sappy mommy who came home from dropping him off and cried in the private of my room. The tears weren't tears of fear for him, no, he is strong and smart and I know he will excel. My tears were for the ending of such a wonderful faze in our lives, days full of sesame street and impromptue trips to the zoo. This next faze will be fun and wonderful and full of joy as well I am sure. TO me the first day of kindergarten seems just the first in a journey of steps that will take them further and further away from mommy....pray that I lead them well.
