And here it is....the last day of kindergarten is tomorrow, and I am sad about it. It went so fast! Wasn't I just on here talking about his first day being tomorrow, and now it is his last? Sigh.
All week long I have heard moms talking about how emotional they are because of their kids' last day coming up, and I was like, huh? And now as I check on Matt tonight it is clear what they mean. It is so sad. I have been teary here and there just thinking about how fast this has all gone, and how grown up he is now. He had a rough start of the year, into the new year, and then something must have happened, as he just bloomed. He has regular friends, and he has confidence in himself.
I worry that once we start 1st grade, we will take a few steps back, and I want to work hard with him over the summer. It is only 3 short months..not even that.
Tonight he told me how excited he is to be a 1st grader. I know he gets it, that he won't be considered low on the pole at school. I can see it in his facial expression. I was going through his backpack, and just got completely emotional looking at all of the projects he had worked so hard on at school. He did so much, and has just really made me incredibly proud at all of his achievements he has made. I wish I could find words that mean even more than those..he has just made me so proud. I love him so unconditionally. I want to just squeeze him, and keep him all to myself. I love you sooo sooo much, Matthew. Good Job!
