I took Caleb to his first day of Kindergarten yesterday. I'm not sure where the last 5 years have gone. I can't believe he is already in school! He was so excited to go and see his friends and start a new adventure.
.When we got to the school, I walked him to his class and made him stand just outside the door so I could take pictures. Then off he ran to play with his friends. He didn't even say bye to me!
I had to go find him out on the little play ground and make him give me a hug and tell me bye. He was probably so embarrassed. I walked around the wall and stood outside (with all the other moms) watching him play until his teacher blew the whistle to go into class. I was trying my hardest to choke back the tears. No other moms were crying! I couldn't believe it. If it weren't for my neighbor walking home with me I would have boobed all the way to my house. When I called my mom to tell her he was on his way in the world with out me she asked if I cried. I told her I couldn't be the only one standing out there with tears rolling down my face so I held it in. She told me I was a closet crier and she is right. When I was all alone I let it all come out.

The boys were so excited to go to Kindergarten. I'm not sure if they were more excited for school or to play on their own playground!! Gotta love 'em!
Oh girl! That is so sweet. I know that I will have a hard time, and I bet every mom there was going through the same thing as yourself! They all go home and wait till no one is watching, aka judging, and then let it all come out!
