First Day of Kindergarten

Today was our sons first day of kindergarten. Yes, I took that photo at 8am this morning. Future Bam is at school as I am writing this. As we said our goodbyes this morning in his classroom, future Bam was happy, eager, and excited. I hope this is how he comes home-happy, eager, and excited to return for another day and many years to come.
Luckily no tears were shed as we parted but as I looked at him for the last time before I closed the classroom door, I could feel myself getting emotional. It didn't help any when I looked over at Hot Daddy and I could see that he was feeling it too.
It's hard to let go of your children. I keep wondering if I have told my son all he needs to know and if I have prepared him enough to go it alone. I would be lying if I didn't say that today was heartbreaking yet also freeing for the both of us. He needs to go out in the world and learn. I need to really focus on my goals and business and by sending him along to school rather than homeschooling I'm able to do this.
It sure is quiet around here though. With only our 3 year old at home it is a whole lot different since you'd never know he was even here. He is the lone player.
I also kept telling myself that people and the world are inherently good and that I really should not worry. Am I kidding myself?

Awwww we just got through the first year of kindergarten, and our oldest learned SO SO Much, it was amazing! You will be so surprised how much you will see that they have learned!
Oh friend,
(((((hugs)))))
Oh wow, first day of kindergarten already? I didn't think schools started so soon!
Hope you both were able to have a good first day!
Amanda, I have to agree - people are inherently good. He is going to do well. He is going to learn so much. A whole new world is opening up to him - it's exciting and scary and wonderful all at once. I bet your 3 year old is missing him! I hope he comes home today feeling wonderful. If he does, you'll be there to share with him and if he doesn't, you'll be there to help give him what he needs to go back again. What a big day for you guys today! I can't even imagine what it must feel like.
Cute picture of your Kindergartener! I bet he loved his first day. Let us know.
awwwwww, look! He is all grown up now, Mama!
My oldest starts preschool this year since her birthday is late.. I'm not going to send her to kindergarden so she will go to preschool 5 days a week for 3 hours each day.
I know her little sis will miss her so much and probably can't figure out what is going on hehe.
*HUGS*
Congrats from another mom to a future Class of 2020 graduate! :)
