big day

Yesterday was the big day. Friday, June 6. Sawyer's last day of pre-k and Harrison's 7 month birthday. Here are a couple of Harrison that were taken yesterday.



Here is Sawyer before he went to school.



This is Sawyer outside of his school (snacking on a banana) after school.
Now, Sawyer can call himself a kindergartner. I'm not sure how that happens. I so vividly remember the first time I saw his chubby cheeks and blonde hair. Now, he's going to elementary school. I did know that this day would come - but I had no idea it would come s0 soon.


Yesterdays bittersweet nature is compounded by the fact that Sawyer didn't spend his final days as a little boy preparing for school with Miss Lynda. Miss Lynda's winter diagnosis with Multiple Myeloma left us saddened and at a new school. Not only are we missing her and her spirit but we're also missing the wonderful, hearftelt graduation Sawyer would have had at her school. I hope for her expedicious recovery so that many more children can experience her joy, love and enthusiasm.


On happier notes, I tried to capture a few more images of Harrison today. (To make up for the lack of good ones from yesterday) They aren't perfect, but they are some cute ones that make a mommas heart sing!






Taking after his big brothers, one truck at a time.
