I sent my little boy off to middle school today.
I didn't think I was that mom who gets sad about her kids leaving for school,
but I realized how quickly he's growing up...
He gave me two nice pictures and then wouldn't pose anymore.
I caught this as he watched out the window for the bus...
He just seems so little waiting for the bus by himself!
He wouldn't let me embarrass him by standing by him on the driveway for a picture, so I had to stay at the front door. Seriously, when did he turn into the kid that's embarrassed by his mom?
And there he goes
Afton was a lot more cooperative.
I think it must be a 4th grade girl thing!
You can tell she's a lot more concerned about her outfit.
She picked it out and laid it on her bed last night.
The opposite of her brother, who wouldn't even let me iron his wrinkly polo.
Oh man was she excited for school!
She was thrilled to meet her teacher yesterday and find friends in her class.
She's even offered to sit by Halle on the bus tomorrow!
Waiting for the bus...
And she even gave me a cute turn-around shot!
So I'm not going to cry, but I will spend my day thinking about them and praying that their first days are terrific!
