It's Kindergarten Eve

It's kindergarten eve and the prayers have been said, the baths have been taken, and the clothes are laid out. We have shopped for extra uniforms and supplies, packed the bags, and talked about how to celebrate after school tomorrow. Tim and I are happy to see Benjamin start his first day at Lakewood. It seems exactly right and totally wrong simultaneously. For his part, Benjamin is ready. He woke up this morning proclaiming excitedly that tomorrow is his first day! It's kindergarten eve and certainly this is a milestone worth celebrating.

It's kindergarten eve, and I am ready to freeze time - just for a little while.
