i’ve often thought it would be an interesting transition from mom-of-toddler to mom-of-preschooler and boy is it. i am now the mom who stands in line at pick-up time, the mom who has to remind said preschooler about what color of the day it is, and of course the mom who dries tears when hurtful words are shared. one of the joys i’ve recently discovered was joining in on my sweet boy’s first field trip. i know, i know – plenty of you are moms who have btdt… but as a fresh newbie to the mom-of-preschooler world, i was humbled to experience this wonder and excitement.
i watched from a safe distance as he obeyed his teachers, walked the “kindergarten line”, and exchanged giggles and adorable words with his best buddies. every few minutes he’d say “hey mama”, i would whisper “yes bubs?” and he’d then blow me a kiss, give me a thumbs up or just say “love you!”. he is such a sweet and caring boy.
d-bug,
i so loved coming along for your big day! can’t wait to see you grow and learn so much in the coming year. always my first sunshine….
xoxo, mama
