It is hard to believe that Ty is 5! We had a birthday party for him today. I think he enjoyed seeing his friends, and I enjoyed seeing my friends too. Thanks for coming!
It has been an emotional week for me, sending him to school. The first day was not that hard because they let us go inside with him and listen to a story. They even fed us donuts! The principal came and welcomed us. It was a good feeling to know that he will be in a good hands. Mike took half a day off to take him to school. We didn't cry! I was happy to go shopping with Mike and to get ready for the party.
The second day was a little bit harder than the first day because I took him to school by myself. They have to stay in line to get in to the classroom. As soon as he waved good bye I cried.
He is doing so good. He loves his teacher, Miss Teolyn. When he came home the first day he said "My teacher taught me about EVERYTHING. She loves me and she is a mom too."
It was hard to see other kids who don't have their mom or dad with them on the first day. I have been thinking a lot about how much Ty knew about the gospel, and I have seen other kids has no idea about this thing. I just feel like I should be nicer to my neighbors and love other people more. I feel like those little kids who are going to school are so precious.
I can't tell you how much I love my family and how grateful I am to know that I will be with them forever.
