When Did This Happen?

When did my baby boy become a big boy?

Today was Monkey’s first full day of Kindergarten. He’s got his own locker and a brand-new lunch bag. And a mama who just can’t believe he’s growing up so fast. Monkey was so excited that he barely even acknowledged me when I said goodbye. I made it half-way back to the main doors before I started crying.

When Pumpkin and I picked him up, he just seemed like it was no big deal! But he had a lot of fun and got to eat his lunch in the cafeteria like a big kid, so he was happy about that. So far, I think lunch is his favorite subject.

    They have an annoying way of doing that.

    My boys are 21 and 16, and I remember those days vividly, as you will.

    Some days, you’ll wish they stayed this size!

    Oh, he’s not THAT big yet. Wait a year or two and he’ll be in high school.
