Where has my baby gone?

Tomorrow, this baby boy starts kindergarten. Where does the time go? It seems like just yesterday that he was this tiny. He’ll be 6 in October and I just can’t believe it’s been that long.

We went to Open House last night and got to meet his teacher. I liked her quite a bit, so that’s a load off my mind. He also has a couple of friends from preschool in his class. These 3 have spent the last 2 years together, so they know each other quite well. I know he’s excited about that. (Frankly, so am I…it should make the adjustment a bit smoother!)

We decided against the bus. I’m just not ready for that right now, and though the cost of gas may make this a short-lived experiment, I just feel much better if I can drop him off and pick him up. My husband is pretty adamantly against the bus, so for now my kindergartener will be a car rider. Which is fine with me! With my other half home most of the time, it shouldn’t be too much to deal with. He’ll probably have drop-off duty and I’ll have pick-ups. Once the baby arrives, we may have to make adjustments but for now I think it’s the best plan for us.

So tomorrow my first baby is off to school. My older brother and his wife just had their first child yesterday and I so want to tell them not to blink because they’ll miss something. I won’t, because when I got advice like that I usually just rolled my eyes. In those early days of sleep deprivation I just couldn’t imagine it. But it’s true. It all happens SO fast.
