First Day of Kindergarten

Hello my Friends!
Today was Nate's first day of Kindergarten. He was such a big boy walking in and finding his seat. He was super excited about his Star Wars lunch box. Can't believe this day has come... seems like just yesterday he was born. Thanks to all of you who prayed for me this morning! I was a big girl and didn't cry!! :)
I got all my boohooing out on Wednesday evening. Bawled my eyes out at my 'baby' growing up too fast. I've tried so hard to shield him from some of the evils of the world and I feel like today that veil is going to be ripped off and he'll be exposed to so much. I pray that what Allan & I have tried so hard to instill in him will show in times of testing. It was extremely hard when talking about good touch/bad touch. He so innocently asked what it meant. Still, I think what we talked about was over his head. I am praying for a hedge of protection around his heart, mind and body!!
He had a yummy pancake breakfast with his PancakeName and a big K for Kindergarten. He was very excited.
I hope & pray this is going to be the start of many great years to come!! Enjoy the pics!
