Well Jacob's newest journey has now begun. My baby started school today!! He was so excited and was more than ready to pop out of bed at 6:30 this morning. I did ok until I started walking down Kindergaten Hall with my little boy, I felt the lump in my throat start. I was not about to even let him think that I was about to cry. We walked into his room,he found his name on his table and sat down and started coloring a picture for his Teacher.. Mrs. Hancock, I took several pictures of him talking to his little friend Abby, she was at his birthday party and went to the pre-school with him. He was telling her all about his new shirt he had on!! I talked with Mrs. Hancock about the dismissal of Kindergarten, and then gave him a quick hug and walked away....but not before I snapped a few more pictures for my album and blogs. I walked alone down Kindergarten Hall and it was the longest walk of my life. I guess since I know that I can not have anymore children...this just got me a little. My baby is growing up on me. He had a great first day and loved every minute of it.....He ate corn dogs and pickles for lunch and drank chocolate milk....and he did it all by himself!!! He was so proud.
Drew began Middle School today and was so excited he could hardly contain himself...He was practicing opening his combination lock for his locker....oh my goodness he has a locker!!!!???? He is in beginner band and is going to play the Snare Drum....so look out Uncle Tommy you are about to get moved off the drums at church.....it's Drew's turn!!!! I am so very proud of both of my boys for being who they are.I know sometimes that they get on my very last nerve, and I do them as well, but I know that they are going to be ok.I am raising them to know right from wrong and God will protect them in whatever they do in life, without God I don't know how we could be ok as long as we have. I am so thankful...
Ok...I will stop now.Hope everyone kids had a great first day.....and the lump in my throat is gone now, so IT'S ALL GOOD!!!!

watch out Good Hope Primary --here comes Jacob !! lol-- but really now it begins..he will be in high school before you know it !!! He was very proud of himself today ...and he had every reason to be... what a big boy he is .....
What a big boy! I am very proud of him for being so good his first day of school. Time will tell...
It is so hard to believe! It was difficult but I try to think about those who will never have kids going to kindergarten and it makes my situation seem minor. Easier said than done but we will survive.
