I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living my baby you'll be

Today was Isaac's first day of school. We've found a wonderful school that has a blended model learning system. This means he goes to school Tues and Thurs all day and I teach him Mon, Wed, and Fri. It was still a hard day for me. I'm kind of an overprotective mom (ok, ok I admit I crossed that line a long time ago!) and I've also been blessed enough to be a stay at home mom so it was hard for me to watch my "baby" start school.

Here he is walking with his Dad to class. His backpack is almost as big as he is!

My goodbye hug...not gonna lie I didn't want to let him go.
All ready to go! Such a cutie!

Rundown of the day. He loved school and was ready to wave goodbye to me the moment his feet hit the pavement. I tried not to cry. Pretty sure I would have bawled had we not run into the principle and some friends on the way out...gotta save face you know?! ha ha

Once I got home the house was soooo quiet. Israel is teething and he was tired and cranky and I was able to hold him and just snuggle with him. This is big because I have not really had quiet (unless both boys are napping)and I've never just got to snuggle with Israel. I loved it! When I picked up Isaac he was soooo excited to tell me about school and I was excited to hear about it. I am also excited to teach him at home and spend some one on one time with my Israel. The first day was hard but this is gonna be a great year! :)

ps confession...maybe, I was able to hold it in b.c. last night while Isaac was sleeping, I snuck into his room and picked him up and snuggled with him and took a trip down memory lane, from the time I brought him home from the hospital till that moment I was currently rocking him, and I cried like a baby. I really felt like the mom from "Love you Forever"
