First day of first grade

We dropped off Evan to his first day of first grade. I think most parents are happy to do this but I have a pit in my stomach. It is going to be a long day and I hope lunch goes well and he isnt hungry. I hope he finds all his friends and enjoys his new teacher.

Steve gave both boys blessings last night and I do have comfort from that. Evan was blessed to enjoy this year and have the ability to concentrate and learn. In Jason's blessing he was told that he has a special talent to learn about the world and enjoy preschool. As a mother it is important for me to find and know their talents and encourage them. I am incredibly grateful for my precious boys and my sweet husband who works so hard and hold the priesthood.

Even though those sweet blessings will get us all through today, I will still be there early at Evan's classroom door to pick him up. I love my boys.
