First Day of School

This is Jordan on his first day of school last year...



...and this is this year. Jordan is in first grade this year and I can't believe it. Besides the fact that he has less teeth then he did last year, he has grown so much bigger and has that Gooch Height. He's the tallest/biggest one in his class, yet inside he's such a little boy. He didn't want to start school because of all the work he had to do in Kindergarten (which I agree was way to much), but so far so good. So far he says he's had a great time and loves his teacher and friends.



Last year for Kindergarten, I put him on the bus in the morning and that was that. I blindly didn't know that a lot of the mothers follow the bus to the school to make sure they get there okay and to take pictures. I just took my pictures before he left. So, this year I was ready to go to the school. I told Jordan I would meet him there and he said "why are you going to meet me there? I'll be okay mommy. " and that was that. He's so independent and has really never had much fear of anything. Since I wasn't feeling good that morning, I was sort of glad he didn't need me but I did feel guilty. So after talking to him when he got home, we agreed it would be okay if I came next year.

I really can't believe 6 years has gone by already since he was born. I can no longer pick him up he's so heavy, but he still likes to cuddle and so I'll have to survive on that for now. Love you little buddy!
