Dear Liam,
Today is your first day of kindergarten! I can hardly believe it! Daddy and I walked you to school this morning, which is something I'll always remember. We took you to your classroom, where you found your nametag, grabbed a pencil from your cubby, and sat down at a desk and got to work on a dot-to-dot... and we left. I'm amazed that I didn't cry. I was close, but I didn't! I'm so excited to hear all about it tonight, after I pick you up from after-care. Tomorrow morning you'll start going to before-care for awhile each day. I wish I could walk you to school every day.
Your last day at daycare was Friday. That was much harder for me than today. I'm okay with new beginnings; it's endings that I don't like! I started to tear up when I dropped you off that morning, and then I totally cried when I picked you up in the afternoon. You were so ready to go though! You've just acted like all of this completely doesn't even affect you! You've been there since you were 13 weeks old. You've been there basically your whole life! As we walked out the door, all the kids yelled, "bye Liam!" and I totally burst into tears. You just kept walking towards the door. I guess you're ready to move on to bigger and better things. You're such a brave boy.
I love you, sweetheart. I hope today is going well, and I can't wait to see you tonight.
Love,
Mommy
