Cole our Kindergartner...

Cole's first day of Kindergarten was the Thursday after Labor day. He went in for an evaluation on Tuesday where he was able to count for his teacher and say sounds of letters and rhyming words. I was out in the hall waiting for him and she came out and told me that he was ahead of the level where most kids are at starting kindergarten. She was really positive and fun.

His first day was filled with excitement. We got there and didn't have much time before the bell rang. Which was probably a good thing for me. I thought I would be this crazy prego lady who was balling but I was able to keep my emotions in check and only cried as he went in the door and we walked away from my sweet boy. A boy who couldn't wait to get inside those doors. He didn't really care much for the playground and can ya blame him, it is kinda lame.

We are on the second week of school now and he still absolutely loves it. I love when we can come home and talk about what he did that day while eating a  little snack.
This week I came home from dropping him off and Kevin was still home and I had been crying. Kevin came over and hugged me. He wondered if something went wrong. Oh nothing did. I was just sad that it's the ending of a time where I had all my little ones to myself and it made me sad.
Man I love being a Mom, I am super excited for their future and all the fun that it will bring but I have felt the bitter sweet of being a Mom.
