today was dash's first day at preschool. he was brave and beyond ready for his new adventure. i on the other hand, decided that he'll probably never seem old enough to be left alone anywhere without me. ever. ga.
i then came to the surprising realization that i am not sad he is older. actually i feel the opposite. i am overwhelmed with how happy i am for him. every new experience is so exciting to watch through his eyes. i am not sad to loose the baby he was, i have these tears because i am so thankful for the little boy he is. he exceeds all of my wildest dreams and i am genuinely overwhelmed with gratitude that i get to share this life with him.
show 'em your big brains my boy. you always make momma proud.
