Yesterday Farmington elementary school called to get our address to send registration forms for Kindergarten for Jack. As I listened to the message, I was excited. "They want Jack!" I thought and I smiled big at Brad. It surprised me and Brad that before the end of the message, I was already crying. September is eight months away!!! I have been in denial about our little Jack turning five years old. He is still almost like a little toddler in many ways.
I knew this day was coming. Two weeks ago in Old Navy it hit me like a brick that I really do have to shop in the 'boy's section' of stores now. I can't find anything to fit him in the baby sections anymore. That thought shocked me for a day. Now Kindergarten. I could cry right now. Ok, I just bawled. Brad came home to find me with puffy red eyes. Luckily Jack is spending the night at Grandma's so I could indulge in melancholy. Sigh!

I know, it's so true what they say, "They grow up so fast!" It doesn't seem possible when they were just born yesterday! Kindergarten is a new adventure, he will love it!
Alison, did you check your email? I sent you some important news.
Oh little Jack! I can't believe it either. I bet it is so hard for you. He is lucky to have such a great pair of parents. I think he will love Kindergarten!
