My heart is completely full with amazement at the wonder of life today. My son is going to kindergarten and as I have been preparing him for this stage in his life, I have also been preparing myself for the sadness and loss I will feel as my "baby" goes out into the world without me for the first time. We had the opportunity to go to school today to experience what his days will be like. God opened my eyes so I could see my son for who he is... a smart, independent, brave young boy who is ready to take on the world. I feel no loss or sadness today, only great joy that I have followed God's path and brought my son along. I know that he will be in God's care everyday when he is away from me just as he has been everyday he was with me.
"Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from
it." Proverbs 22:6
