Grant has been pretty nervous about starting school. We went to meet with his teacher on Monday and I think that helped a ton with his anxiety about it. So Tuesday morning we got up a little early so that he didnt have to be rushed. It was nice because after we were all ready to go we had a little time to cuddle and just talk. When Grant gets anxiety about things he doesnt breathe very well so it was nice to take a minute for some down time. He will be riding the bus again this year but I wanted to take him for his first day. By the time we got to the school he was really excited to see his friends he hadnt seen all summer and he had a huge smile on his face! We took some pictures and got in line to wait for his teacher to come out to get the kids. As he was standing in line chatting with all his friends from Kindergarten, he turned to me and said "Mom, first grade is great!" That made me so happy I almost cried. It was like it had only been a weekend since he had seen them last and he didnt skip a beat. When his teacher came out to get them, he turned to me with a huge smile and gave me the I LOVE YOU sign that we always do. As I watched my little man walk into first grade with such confidence it made me so proud. Grant is such an amazing child. I know he will have a great year and he will love first grade!!
Here is a picture of him on the first day last year
And here he is this year!!
All ready to go in and start his first day!!
