Twas the night before kindergarten...

and tucked in his bed...


"How did my baby grow up so fast?" was the first thought in my head.


He started so small, he was in such a hurry...


and these years just went by in a flurry...


Each year seemed so short but the days seemed so long...


I know in the morning I will have to be strong..


You are oh so excited to make new friends and to play...


You will learn and grow so much each and every day...


Mommy may cry a little tomorrow...


Believe me it is joy not sorrow...


I am so proud of you and love you so much...


I'll even sneak an "I love you" note in your lunch...


Brendan, my son, who can always make me laugh...


I simply cannot believe you are five and a half...



You are ready for school and are so smart...


 When you step onto that bus in the morning, I will watch as it takes a piece of my heart






Mommy, Daddy, and Lila love you so much and we know you will have the best first day of kindergarten!

  2. Thanks Lauren! Good luck with preschool:) It is so hard at first to leave your little ones. You will be amazed at how much they learn. These early years are so priceless. I will get to enjoy lots of one on one time with my little Lila.
