James is a Kindergartner!

I don't really have words. 

I remember this... 

...like it was yesterday.

My Sweet Baby James is 5 1/2 and started Kindergarten. He is at school right now and I feel a little empty. Nichole's little girl Payzli is in his class and we drop them off and pick them up and are able to talk a little bit. Today we were talking and couldn't help but stand there watching them go in just feeling a little empty. Even though our hearts are bursting with little 2 year olds and baby boys in our bellies. It's so hard. It's hard watching your firstborn be independent without you. Trusting them to go in and do what you've been teaching them for the past 5 years. What if they're behind? What if they get hurt? I'm not there to make him feel better! Who is going to give him hugs like his mommy? Is he making friends or being excluded? Eating lunch alone or excluding other kids? Surely he wouldn't do that. You taught him better. Or did you? 

I gotta trust that he is being a good human and trying his hardest. That his little spirit gets anything but crushed from this world. 

^^ Looks like he was crying but the sun was in his eyes. He was a little nervous though!^^

 ^^He was yawning a lot. When I get nervous I yawn too.^^
