Oh, I can't believe this is really happening...Jaygen going to first grade!!! I guess I have just assumed that my boys would be my "little boys" forever! This year is a big milestone for Jaygen because he now goes to school all day. His teacher is Mrs. Nissen. I thought this day would never come...but it did!
Jaygen said that he wanted Todd to take him to school today...and I thought well that is rude...but oh well, I am coming too, ha ha!!! So the whole family took Jaygen to his first day of first grade. I needed to be there to see that my little boy got settled in ok in his class...and he did! Jaygen is getting to be such a big boy and more handsome everyday. He is a good kid with a huge but soft heart. I love Jaygen so much!
I was trying to prepare myself for today so I wouldn't cry my head off all day. When we watched Jaygen walk in his classroom I could feel tears starting to fill my eyes and then I looked at Todd and he gave me the look like, seriously?! So, I held the tears back and by the time I got home I was good. I was kinda excited thinking about what I was going to do all day. Then before knew it, it was time to go get Jaygen and I didn't get done half what I wanted to...including my nap I didn't get! Now I am thinking that the school day is just not long enough! :)
When I picked Jaygen up he was all smiles and was telling me everything about his day...he loved it. He said that his favorite thing about the first grade is all the recesses...surprise, surprise. He was also super excited that they get their food on lunch trays, not just plates!!!

He is so handsome! He will do so well in first grade!
Gotta love the first day of school! It kinda makes ya sad when they're so excited to go and not holding on to your leg crying for you to stay! Mrs. Nissen is such a cute lady, Jaygen will have a great year!
