Grant Starts School

So if I thought it was a bit emotional to send Aid to preschool for the first time, sending my baby is...I don't even have a word for it.  He has been so excited and watching him walk up with his little back pack had me choked up.  Instantly.  What is happening?! The baby is going to school?  It's only two mornings a week this year.  Really just to get him into this idea of mommy is dropping you off somewhere.  Which I have been incredibly blessed not to have to do.  The icing on the cake is that his best girl, Grace, is going to the same school! They are not technically in the same classroom, but he is super excited to be in the same building with her. 


He's ready folks. Am I?

He wanted me to take a picture of his back pack. He's very pleased with his selection.

Checking out the playground.  Aid is flabbergasted that Grant did not want to go to his Mecca of a preschool. "This is your playground?!  There are no woods.  Or llamas."  Oh dear, public school might be a big dose of reality for the oldest!! ;)

Game face on.

His adorable little classroom.

His preschool teacher Ms. Jennifer! Who seems to like him.  He was very seriously asking her where the dinosaurs were.  She promised him she would pull them out when school started. (sigh)

Yep. She's really at my school!

Grant is going to make an excellent husband some day. He's got 'do whatever your honey wants you to do' down pat.

In front of his cubby.  Big brother was very good about showing him the ropes. While mom choked back tears. Good grief.

This ones for you mom.  The preschool is non denominational but off the church. 

Good Luck Grant.  You are going to do great!
