Bittersweet Day

I am not quite sure where the last 5 years have gone. That being said, I have had a super bittersweet day. My first born met his kindergarten teacher today. :( He is so excited about this new adventure in life and I am so excited for him. I am also so sad because he is leaving the comfort of his home where he has been with me for the last five years. My husband and I made the decision not long after he was born that I would quit my job as a registered nurse and dedicate my life for the time being on raising this little guy. Well, one brother 18 months later and a baby sister just over a year ago, I am still here raising these babies. The sad part is, they are not babies anymore. The mail man delivered his backpack on Friday. He was so excited that I thought he would jump through the door to get it. "My backpack! My backpack!" He has worn it since. I am so happy to see this kind of enthusiasm for school. He is just growing up too fast for mama.
