Tough Morning

Today was the first day parents couldn't walk their kids to their classes. We now drop them off at the drop-off curb then the "Safety Patrol" escorts the kids to their classes. I cried today. Mother hen (Michelle's words :) ) wanted to walk her son to class to make sure he got there ok. It was hard to let him leave today. As we were pulling up, I told Vea that mommy (me) couldn't walk him to his class today. He said, "Why Mom? I want you to walk with me. I want to give you hugs and kisses and more hugs and kisses." My heart melted. I gave him lots of hugs and kisses, watched him as long as I could, drove off and started crying. Tough morning!!



I was looking at past posts and I came across this picture Michelle, Blake and the kids sent Vea wishing him a happy birthday last year. I couldn't resist re-posting this picture. These are our little kindergartners!! They are so grown up now. It seems like they should still be this little. Where has time gone? It's true when people tell you to hold on to these precious years because before we know it they will be graduating from high school. My heart is so full right now. I think I'm having an emotional morning. :) I just love these kiddos so much and can't believe how big they are. I thank my Heavenly Father for these emotions and for the love I have for my family. And for the love I feel from my family. You are all so special to me. I love you all!!!!!!
