I’m Very Proud, but SAD!
Well today I’ve hit another milestone in my life and fortunately I was in town to witness it.
My youngest child started Kindergarden today. Although I’m very proud and Kolby was very excited to start school, I’m also a little sad. It means I’m getting older!
My wife and I took Kolby for his first day of school and he was ready to go. Once he got to his classroom, his teacher helped him get his things straightened out and he joined the other kids and started drawing until all the kids showed up! I’m not worried about him crying or giving the teacher any problems because we sent him to preschool for 2 years and he absolutetly loved it!
Now I have to deal with the fact that I have a 5th grader and a kindegardener!!!! I don’t think I’ll be jumping off any bridges, but it sure makes you wonder where the time has gone!
Here is Kolby with his teacher and her assistant!
Great picture and be proud of both!!
My oldest went to his first day of HS this week.

Yeah, you’re sad now… but wait until they graduate! That’s when you’re REALLY going to feel old!
Trust me on that one…
Seriously, enjoy every moment. It seems like the time between Kindergarten and going off to college collapses on itself. One day, you wake up and realize the house is quiet again and it’s just you and your wife. Those little monsters have been turned loose on the world, and all you can do is hope you taught them right.
