today, i took my oldest, precious, amazing son to his 1st grade orientation! where are the years going? next year, i’ll be taking him to college. okay, not next year. but it really feels like these years are going at such a fast rate.
man, i want to do things right. i want to love him well! but today- i’m just going to enjoy being his mommy and the one he loves more than anything. today, i’m going to sit and listen to him read book after book. today, i am going to listen to him tell me every single detail he can about everything he can think of. i love my boy. i love every inch of him. and i love getting to be his mommy.
so… first grade- no big deal! he’ll always be my boy! at least in my mind!


Wow Marci. Could these children take anymore of our hearts?! Goodness.
