So for all that knows me knows that I have been awaiting the day for Caden to go to kindergarten. The reason being is because he is an absolute handful. Stubborn and hard headed like no other. But he can also be so very sweet and so dang cute. I said and I quote "I am not going to cry when he graduates preschool because that is one step closer to kindergarten. And I am not going to cry the day I take him to kindergarten either." I am going to go ahead and retract that last statement because I boohooed like a baby when he graduated preschool. That baby kept grinning at us and waving. He was so absolutely excited and it was so bittersweet.
I no longer have a baby. I now have children. A soon to be third grader and a kindergartener. My heart aches for the babies they use to be. And seeing that child walk down the aisle in his cap and gown made tears roll down my cheeks and made me half nauseated.
You remember in school when you thought the school year would never end and it seemed like getting to age 16 was never going to come. I wish time was slow like that again. It is like yesterday I had my babies in my arms. (begging for kindergarten...LOL) Oh if I could go back things would be so different. It is funny how things change.
Sitting here typing this and looking at these pictures make me relive the moment. I am teary eyed right now. This is probably why I have procrastinated this post. He graduated April 25th. It is now May 4th.
Here is my baby walking down the aisle!
Getting his diploma from his teacher, Ms. Shannon
Ohhh, he wants to be a farmer when he grows up!

Big Brother Case was super excited for him too! *Sniff*
And here is the picture of our completely dysfunctional, loving, awesome, fun family.
