Kindergarten Meet 'N Greet

It's here.  Like, really here.  Today Micah met his teacher and tomorrow he starts school.  Not pre-k.  Real K, haha...Kindergarten!  I can't really explain the emotions I'm dealing with - joy and elation and excitement mixed with anxiety and sadness and apprehension.  It's not really bad - it's a good thing, as I know our kids are meant to grow up.  They are meant to do exactly what will be happening tomorrow.  And I know that come 2 years from now, and another 2 years after that, this Kindergarten thing won't feel quite as surreal but for right now, it does.  It IS a big deal, and I'm allowed to feel emotional about it :) 

Micah's so excited.  Tucking him in to bed tonight, trying to carry on a heartfelt conversation was near impossible.  He's as giddy and silly as can be right now!  I haven't seen him like this in a long time, and it's cute to be a part of, as I know he's so excited for school tomorrow.  He knows I might cry (lol) but he knows I'm proud of him and happy for the next journey in his life. 

And so here we are.  Kindergarten at Louise White Elementary in Batavia, IL with Mrs. Kohlhagen.  Bring. It. On.
