Today was Big E’s end of year kindergarten picnic.

It seems like only yesterday that we were sitting in kindergarten orientation in the gym of his school. He was cuddled up next to me, his eyes huge. I could tell he was nervous, but when the teachers called him to get into line he mustered his courage and lined up with his new classmates. This morning I sat on a blanket outside watching him run around with all those kids, laughing and joining in on their games. Big E is a really special boy with a kind heart. I’m so incredibly proud of him. I’m proud of how well he did in school this past year, and I am proud of the young man he is growing up to be.

Congratulations on your first year of school, Big E! We love you!!
