This kid is a little dare devil! If he can push the envelope he will. If he can jump higher, longer, faster he will! I love watching him try to figure things out, sometimes I will admit that I watch through the cracks in my fingers because of my mommy fear that often gets in my way. Big brother is an athlete, he loves the physical challenges, although he can be one to sit and relax too. He is a character!
Big brother will be started first grade in two short months. I will be honest here and admit that I am having a hard time with the thought of him being gone all day long. School starts at 8:45am and gets done at 3:15pm. We are talking about him riding the bus so that brother’s naps are not being interrupted in the afternoon which means that he will be at the bus stop at 8:21am and not home until 3:36pm. That is a long day to have my first born away from me. Hubby is not understanding the dilemma that I am feeling. Hubby in fact is trying to get me to agree to send big brother to summer camp this summer for two nights. It is the same summer camp the hubby grew up going to and so he feels like it is not a big deal at all… this mommy heart is feeling like he is trying to kill me, okay maybe not kill me but at least give me sleepless nights and heart aches at the thought. I know that my little boy is growing up, but I am not sure I am ready to let him go… to summer camp, first grade, or ride the school bus. I do truly know though that big brother would be perfectly fine and will enjoy it all in true big brother style, but I am not quiet ready. Am I crazy?… maybe but I am okay with that! 🙂
