Today you begin an incredible journey.
You start school.
Today you start learning about respect toward your peers, words, new games and songs. You will develop a strong foundation and scholastic excellence. You will begin to become a boy and am no longer my baby.
I am tearing up as I write this, not because I miss the baby that you were, but because I am anxious to see the boy (and then the man) that you will become. I am tearing up because you have taught me so much and I hope that I have taught you a few things, too. I am tearing up because I am so full of love for you that I can't articulate it. I need to show it.
Learn a lot. Be brave. Have a great year. I will always be waiting for you when you get out of school to give you a hug and ask you how class was.
Love, Mommy
Blessed be.
