Caught off Guard

It did not dawn on my until last night, while at Blay's pre-school graduation program (no he was not graduating, only performing with his 'class') that I am only a year or two away from him going to KINDERGARTEN!!!!  Let's just say, I am NOT ready for this.

I know he's growing up and all but really? This soon? This fast? Why can't time just slow down a little? At times I think having another child while felp me with him when it comes to big milestones like Kindergarten but it won't. I will just have another child to tell time to 'stop' with.  My baby boy is no longer a baby and this makes me sad.

He talks, walks, and interacts like a little man, not like a baby boy.  Last night sitting there, watching the program, my heart was already aching thinking of what the future held with him growing up. Thinking of the many milestones he has accomplished and those he has yet to accomplish.  I know it is a part of life but for a Mom, I think it is one of the hardest parts of life. Watching your 'baby' grow. It's so bittersweet.

On another note, only Blay and his best friend Wesley from their class are the only ones who showed up last night for their part in the program. They did the best duet (and Blay a couple solos)!!!!  They sang Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and Jingle Bells. I know your thinking "Christmas Songs in May"?  But, the program was about the seasons of the graduating Pre-K classes year at school so each group (3 years up) had different seasons to sing about! They were great.

When I get the pictures uploaded, I will post a few here for you. 

Have a Happy Friday and a Good LLLOOOONNNNNGGGGG WEEKEND!

Love to all-
