With thoughts of Spring I have been making some Spring resolutions (yeah I like making resolutions not just at the New Year, all year). My goal is to share some more personal aspects of my family and I. To get started we had a BIG day in the Lewis household yesterday. Our little man attended his first day of “school”. Ok, so maybe it is a little less school and a lot more play at this age but either way it was an exciting day and I can’t wait to see what new things he learns.
I was worried he would cry and not want me to leave but I walked away without any reaction from him. He is a bit attached to me so this was quite surprising. I thought I would be more worried… I don’t leave him much and it is always with grandparent’s when I do. I felt a great peace about it and as I ran errands I kept thinking, they will call me any minute to come back early but the phone never rang and I came back 3 1/2 hours later to my little man playing and having a good ole’ time… he did get quite attached to one of the teachers but a no tears first day was a super blessing. He will be attending one day a week in this great program our town offers.
I’m not sure how this day got here. I’ve always seen him as a baby but I definitely see the “big boy” coming out. Here are a few memories from our “BIG day”:
~ Arriving for his first day… “Mom, what are we doing?”
~ My first peak… a cool little window that you can see in but they can’t see you (secret agent mom)! 🙂
~ Oh geez, his first artwork. This makes my heart happy (and yes it is on the fridge)!
~ Post-nap red face… so much excitement makes for a tired boy.
~ These little feet remind me of just how little he really is… I love when he crosses them.
I know that not everyone will see the beauty that I see in these photographs. Art and beauty are both subjective… that is what makes it so interesting. Beauty is in whatever makes you smile. So, I hope this post made you smile. I hope it made you reflect on life. I hope it makes you cherish each moment… the good, the challenging, and everything in between.
