Harrison's FIRST day of school!

Harrison woke up SO excited this morning for his first day of school! He got himself dressed and ready for school with such anticipation! I was so excited for him. He ate his breakfast, had time to watch Curious George, and then we were out the door for a quick picture and then off to school! :) On our way to school, I told him that everyday we would pray for his day before he goes into class. He wanted to pray right then and there and Harrison had the sweetest things to say in his prayer about Jesus watching out for him, that he would make friends, and that Mommy, Daddy, and Jackson wouldn't miss him too much. I was so proud of my little boy in that moment! He really wanted Jesus to bless his day!

We walked into his classroom and Mrs. Lee was waiting for him with a GREAT BIG smile on her face. She was as friendly as could be and looked like she was going to be a fabulous teacher! He was grinning from ear to ear. I'm sure he'll have a crush on her in no time. He got straight to work putting his stuff in his cubbie and then off to help work a puzzle with a new pal. Jackson tried to pull out a few Lego's while I filled out some paperwork. It was clear that he would really like to stay at school too! :) I snapped a quick picture of Harrison and his Kindergarten teacher and then Jackson and I walked to the door. Harrison came running up to us and gave us big hugs and said goodbye as happy as ever. Just what a mom wants, to see him comfortable and excited to stay! I was thrilled! I felt my eyes water as he walked back to his teacher and we walked away but it was out of joy! I was so proud of my boy and so excited for the new experiences he is about to encounter! These are precious times!

I headed straight to the office to sign up for the PTA. I volunteered for the Spring Carnival and to be a Library Helper. I want to make sure those people know who Harrison's mom is and that they know I'll be popping in quite regularly! :)

I'm off to get my boy...I can't wait to hear all that he's been up to! Thank you all for your comments, prayers, and encouragement. I am so blessed to have my friends/family and have all of you love my boy enough to care about his first day of school! You guys are the best and I don't know what I would do without each and every one of you!!!!
