Growing up

So my son has one more week or 3 days left of school and it is a very bittersweet moment for me.  He is my oldest so I experienced a lot with him as a new mom.  He has always been my hugger, cuddler, and my little man! 

He will be moving on to the 1st grade this coming fall and I def have mixed feelings about it.  I am excited for him to keep moving forward and learning new things.  I love to see him grow and get excited about new things.  I love being able to experience those things with him.  But it's also a very sad time for me because he will be going into all day school.  I won't get to see him as much and I won't get to eat lunch with him anymore.  Some very sad times for a mom for sure!

I am excited about the break I will get as my daughter will be going into preschool so for at least two days during the week it will be me time.  I'm not really sure how I should feel about that.  I am def ready to do my shopping without kids bc it will make life easier and to clean my house without kids messing it up when I move to another room. 

This will also be a bittersweet time with Ash as she is my youngest and the last.  Once she is in school, it will be just me!

Life has some exciting things in my future with having kids in school and I look forward to those things but it's going to be a big transition for me.  Once that most of my friends wont be going through for a few years still.

I'm gonna have to lean on Jesus during this time.  I know I will be doing alot of crying sure.  I plan to still be involved in their schooling and help out in their classes but somehow I don't think it will be the same.

  1. Maybe Ash isn't your last child, you never know what God has in store. =) If you get lonely when both kids are in school I'd be happy to loan you one of mine. =)

  2. Bite your tongue!!! hehe I know God has his own plans but for us it's our last. We are prepared for God to do something in that area because we know we are done so we shall see.
