Last Friday night, Will's school held a "Graduation" for all the kids leaving the preschool program going to Kindergarten. Everytime I referred to the graduation and the ceremony I sort of chuckled to myself and thought it was a little bit silly to graduate a bunch of 4 and 5 years....I mean caps and gowns? Really?
But, then I attended the program and my whole attitude changed. I was totally caught off guard at how I reacted to the whole thing. I cried uncontrollably and felt so overwhelmed watching this little boy of ours walk out. I felt so full of love and joy; I felt proud, excited, and even a little sad. I just kept sitting there trying to figure out where all the time has gone from the day he was born (which only feels like yesterday) unitl now. I know this is the first of many times I will feel this way in Will's life and I just can't even imagine how it's going to be the older he gets. And we will have 2 more following him! I'm gonna be an absolute mess by the time we get all these kids through college. :)
Will's wonderful teacher, Mrs. Tamar
Assistant teacher, Ms. Germeca
I could not possibly love this little boy anymore! Way to go, Will!

Aw, Will!!! Stop growing so fast!!! So sweet and such a big, BIG boy!!!
I felt the same way when Syd graduated last month. Caps and gowns? That we pay for and will never use again? Then I sobbed like a baby. Soooo sweet!
