Growing Up


Just LOOK at Tate's new trick. He's pretty much mastered tying his own shoes! It's one more way that he's becoming more independent, (which is good and bad). It makes me happy to know that he is learning and progressing, but what happened to my baby?
Tate's starting Kindergarten on Wednesday, and I
never thought that I would be the type of mom that would cry over it. But I was wrong. What was I thinking? I've always been the emotional type. Last night I had my first cry just thinking about him getting older (old enough for Kindergarten). The reality is that "My baby is growing up", and life will never be the same.

  1. I was never an overly emotional person. I wouldn't cry at movies when other people would even if they touched me in some way. BUT since having my one and only child I can cry at the drop of a hat. It is crazy. I said goodbye about 1 minute before the kids got to walk into school on that first day of kindergarten and it was all I could do to get to my car before someone saw me crying my eyes out. This year begins 2nd grade and I can't believe it. Time truly flys by. I think you summed it up so nicely. While I want her to continue to grow up and blossom I also want my baby back. It is so bitter sweet.

    Good luck. I hope all went well.
