1st Day of School

Tryston started the 4th grade this year. I swear these kids go to sleep an infant and wake up all grown up. He is so grown up. He carries a trapper keeper. Come on, ya'll remember these. They were the coolest!! He rides the bus home and John and Asher are there waiting on him.

I am admitting it now...I am one of "those" mom's. I was off his first day of school. I thought he should go ahead and practice coming home on the bus while someone was waiting on him so he'd feel more comfortable. (We thought he'd beat John home--he has his own key so he can get in and everything, but John beats him home so oh well). So, back to my mom moment. I decided I'd get a picture of his first bus ride...NOT COOL in the 4th grade. But, I was being discrete...I was at the door...it's a long driveway...surely they won't see me. Nope, the kids saw me, but luckily my son is cool about it. He let me have my mommy moment.

When does it happen? Again, one day you wake up and you've turned into one of "those" parents.
