Today has been a bittersweet and emotional day for me.
Today Metal Man started Year 11. He is now a Senior High School student. My baby has grown up so much! It feels like just yesterday he was that little guy starting kindergarten wearing his Godzilla backpack.
And, today should have been the day that Noah started school. I wonder what type of bag he would have had. Would he have been in to Disney Cars? Toy Story? Spiderman? What would he have looked like dressed up in his brand new school clothes & shoes?
His Daddy would have taken the morning off work to see him start school. We would have taken hundreds of photos and I would have cried as I said goodbye and watch him go off to his first big boy class. I also would have also been waiting at the school gates eagerly awaiting the stories of his first day, just like I did with Metal Man & Teen Queen.
But, the tears have been flowing and it is not because I have said goodbye to him as he goes to his first class. They're flowing because almost 5 years ago we said Hello & Goodbye on the same day. On Feb 21, it will be 5 years since our precious little boy was born still.
