Am I the only one who tears up when I think about the fact that Jason is now in Kindergarten? I cannot believe that we are sending him away from home for the first time. There was trepidation on the part of all of us but Jason's first day of school could not have been any better. He received a letter from his teacher Mrs. Rice a few days prior to Open House and that seemed to be a real ice breaker. The night before was open house and we finally met Mrs. Rice and took a tour of his new school, Level Grove Elementary. That's right, our boy is a Bulldog and we are so proud of him. After open house we treated everyone to Chick-Fil-A dinner and ice cream as a sort of celebration and then it was home to bed. The following morning he was up and ready to go. His clothes were all laid out and backpack embroidered with the letters RWYA: Remember Who You Are. We ALL walked him to the classroom and left him sitting at his seat. He was very focused and serious. No tears or looking back, a real tough guy. I on the other hand, was a mess. Fortunately I held it together for him, but the ride home was filled with many tears and also great joy. Jason, Daddy and I couldn't be more proud of you. What a leader you are. God has great things in store for you and we can't wait to see what they are. We love you!
