I approached this morning with a sense of dread mixed with nostalgia, coupled with happiness and topped with pride.

My on Ayden began his newest journey in life: 1st grade..

Today made Kindergarten look easy. The tears..the fears… Yes,there may still be some. But the kindergarten emotions are gone. Instead it is a pure and complete smile. The future is bright.

The morning was bright too. Ayden was asking his first day of school would feature sun since around the middle of August. Thankfully it did..A bright and beautiful cool breeze made it feel extra-school like..

I know there are millions of your,parents, in the same boat as me today.
Watching a child grow up.. watching a child mature..Watching those moments when your child chooses to act independently and fly. And fail–ask for help–and try again.

Godspeed to the parents out there. First days of school…filled with the sights and smells, nostalgia and beauty of late summer and early autumn. And the emotions of adulthood watching your offspring grow.
