Firsts

I just dropped my baby off at his first day of school. I am holding it together =) I wiggled a little and asked for an extra hug. I only swallowed hard once. I'm doing really good. I took some pics on the front stoop and by one of the apple trees. I didn't take my camera into the classroom, like some other parents. I decided we'd just enjoy the moment and not make any more fuss. Maybe next week when he feels a sense of ownership to the place, we'll take some pics. He was soooo excited to find trucks and diggers and toy cameras and a crayon box bigger than him =) I know there will be many stories about school today! And now I need to make use of this new child-free time and go do everything I've been putting off...wish me luck!
