Today is the day.  I even made the bed this morning (something that hasn't happen for awhile).  Today Pickles begins Kindergarten.  I have been planning, praying, and preparing all summer and now its here.  I have wondered what the moment would be like.  I honestly didn't think that I would be as emotional as I am.  I was a bit teary last night while talking to dh and again this morning as I spoke with the Father.  It really does seem like a milestone even though I'm not changing our routinue too much. 

I think the part that makes me emotional is thinking about how much he will change this year.  I remember teaching Kindergarten and seeing all the growth and maturity that happened during that year.  I'm excited and sad at the same time.  The conflicted moments of motherhood.  I just praise God that I get a front seat to see how God will continue to form and fashion Pickles into the man He desires.  I'm also humbled that God has chosen dh and I to be the ones to be Daddy/Principal and Momma/Teacher to a little person created in His image.  Wow!
