Jack's First Day of School


Well, today is the BIG day......my (not so little!) man's very first day of school! I can't believe it! We have been preparing and talking about it for weeks and his big day is finally here! I am both excited and very sad because Jack is just growing up far too quickly!!!!

I am thrilled to say that we both survived infamous "drop off" this morning. He certainly did better than I did! He was laughing and playing and this momma just could not hold back the tears!!! It is all day school which I originally thought might be too long of a day, but his teachers strongly encouraged me keeping him there all day to see how he does. They said they keep them on a pretty strict routine so it is best to stick with it because it really works for most kids. So, I listened and let him eat lunch there AND nap as well. On his daily report card I received, his teachers said he "slept and rested quietly," "ate almost everything," was "energetic and friendly," and even "shared so nicely with the other students." That equates to straight A's in my book!!! He had a remarkable fist day and I couldn't be more proud of him!!!!

Here are some shots of him that I snapped quickly just before we left for his very first day. As you can tell, he was quite giddy to be embarking upon this brand new milestone!!! I am very happy for my sweet baby boy!
