Mother's Day Tea and Last day of Preschool

Today was an emotional day for me. It was a joyful day, but still tears flowed down my face...
It was Wilson's last day of school . (Because we are leaving for Ohio
 tomorrow and he will miss the end of year festivities.)
 Today, I felt like I was turning the page in my life's story book. Our little Mother's Day Tea and Wilson's last day represented the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. The unsettling part, is that the setting of our new chapter is unknown. Some moments, (like today) I just want to stop the story, and freeze time, but I cannot stop from turning the page...Time continues to pass no matter what I want...


 

I can't believe that he will be starting school next year, and yet I know he is ready...

Wilson's gift to me. I love it, even if he is making a face in the picture.  

He looks so grown up... (tear)


This school has been such a blessing to me. It has given me community, connection, and love in a place where I was the stranger. The teachers, and fellow parents, have loved me and my children more than I thought they could.

I love this boy SO much!! (tear)

Possibly the best mother son picture EVER!

His fantastic teachers Kerrie and Kody


They have reminded me how to treat others and to be grateful for the time we are given to share with one another. To say that our time here was special doesn't describe it well enough.
To say goodbye to them is hard...

We go nowhere by accident!

I have bloomed where I am planted because these amazing people have tended to my soil.
