Today was Eli's first real day of preschool He got to wear his new clothes and take his cool new backpack and he was pretty excited. I wasn't really excited though! I didn't sleep all night and I am a little emotional today. I am the kind of mom (well maybe all moms are like this) that doesn't really like these milestones. I miss Eli when he's not around and even though I like that he's growing up I wish that he could stay a little boy forever. If I could make myself invisible I'd follow him around everywhere then I wouldn't mind him growing up so much.
He did look really cute walking to school.
When he saw that backpack he said "I don't need a suitcase, huh mom?" that means "I really want that but I think you are going to say no." I showed him how you can wheel it or put it on your back like a backpack and he loved it!
Man this is making me miss him! I can get him in 40 minutes :)

Oh, those pictures are so cute! It makes me want to cry to see him walking away! Kiss him for me when he gets home today. Love, Mom & Grandma
Maybe it's because Darcy has entered a Little Miss Attitude phase, but I'm really grateful to see her head off to preschool two days a week. Because I know she's really good with her teacher and doesn't act like a grumpy tantrum kid there, I'm hoping that she'll practice being good and try it at home. There. How's that for a Bad Mom confession?
It makes me feel like crying watching him go too!
