This kid – I couldn’t be prouder. He adjusted to being back in school like it was something he has been doing all summer long. I was worried he wouldn’t want to go or that he wouldn’t understand why he had different teachers, different classmates and was in a different classroom. But he was excited for his first day and got out of the car with a huge smile on his face and a little wave of his hand with a “buh-bye mama!” It once again reminds me that while he and his brother will always be the center of my world, I won’t always be the center of theirs. They will grow and become independent little people with their own lives. I can only hope that it doesn’t happen too quickly.
