Changes Ahead...

yikes I am feeling really relfective this evening...I think it's hormones (hahaha) but today was just one of those days where I felt so darn emotional! So at Target this morning we are shopping for school items from Brandon's list I got in the mail for Kindergarten. He picks out a new backpack and asks "mom, why do I need this?" and I start to reply "well honey, when you go to school you put this folder in it and then the papers you get thru the day you put in it and bring home to show me..." "why are you crying mom?" I totally broke down in the aisle of Target, all choked up and hardly able to keep talking. I know every mom must feel like this, I mean it's a huge right of passage - Kindergarten! What the heck is my baby doing going to Kindergarten already? How can it be that 5 days a week he will leave me to learn form other's about all the wonderful things life has to offer? Man I'm a wreck! :-)

I can totally see myself doing the same thing. I cry every year at Tucker's birthday parties so kindergarten will be a major emotional event. I can't imagine the tears the first day I put him on a school bus!! I will need to schedule some retail therapy for that day. Good LUCK!
