Kindergarten Here We Come!!

Our little guy is growing up! This has been a momentous weekend for us. On Saturday we registered Ethan for T-Ball, he is finally old enough!! I got to join the lines of mom's and dad's signing kids up for spring sports, I have made the rite of passage. Then this morning we ventured in the doors of Elementary School, that's right Kindergarten Registration, dun, dun, duuun. We just happened to go at a time that the kids were comming in from recess. Those kids were huge walking in the halls, Ethan was not so huge. I about lost it there. I don't know if I am ready to send my guy into the world we call Elementary School. I signed my name on the dotted line saying that yes indeed I was his Mom, today is a good day, I will claim him. They checked records to make sure he was healthy and that he had no Communicable diseases, I do not think that a paper would be able to tell you that but they seem to trust the paper, I know Ethan is free and clear but August is a long time away a lot can happen before then, I hope the other kids stay free and clear. Anyway, the job is done. Ethan will be going to kindergarten in the fall. What am I going to do? I will not know how to act. I will probably cry my eyes out, and then enjoy the feeling of relief from video games and Star Wars Junk. I am sure Emilee will fill my time with baby dolls and "princess movies". Anyone know a good preschool that takes two year olds?

Wow-that is just crazy! I have been on the verge of tears all week as all my "big kids" in preschool tell me about their Kindergarten Registration days. I can't believe they are going to leave--and they're not even my kids!! By the way, I am so in the club LHCW FOREVER!! Call me so we can talk...

Hi! Don't worry, I will take care of your little boy when he starts school! :)

I felt that way when I sent Ezra to nursery all by himself today. At like usual he could care less if I left.

Hey Alisha,
Cute blog! Way better than mine, for sure. I mostly do pictures. I'll learn, and maybe find some more time to actually get into it more. Check mine out (if you dare).
