First Grade is Calling.

My sweet boy. It's time.

We have prayed for a place, a school where we could call home for you, 

while your away from home.

We found it last year. 

Thankful that when you walk in the doors

 I believe with all that is in me that you will learn, laugh and be loved on by some of the sweetest teachers I know.

I need you to stop growing. I can remember this time last year and my stomach was in knots. I was nervous for you. I felt like it was my first day of school all over again.

I thought this time would be different.

 Oh sweetie it's not. 

I knew this day was coming. You are more than ready.

I am not.

Wasn't it just a minute ago that I was rocking you to sleep. 

Jumping up and down when you said your first words.

I feel like I simply blinked and here we are. 
Oh my sweet boy you make my heart smile.

I am so proud of you and I am so thankful 

for the boy that you have become. 

I have seen you grow leaps and bounds this summer.

I know you will be great.

I know that you will learn a lot. 

I know that you will make so many new friends

and enjoy all of your old friends. 

I know you will be forming life long friendships

and I am so thankful. 

Please know, my sweet boy. 

I will be praying.

I will be waiting to pick you up as soon as the bells rings.

Welcome to first grade my love.
