Excuse me while I get emotional

My baby starts kindergarten tomorrow.


I never really expected to get emotional about it.


But I also never expected to love anyone so much.


And tonight? When he told me he was nervous about kindergarten? I tried to fight back the tears. But I couldn't.

Because what I want to do is scoop him up in my arms and hold him.
All day long. No school, no teacher, no changes. Just us.


And part of me really wants to just push the stop button and keep him 5 forever.


But I know he must grow up and go to school.

And that he will love it. And they will love him.


If only I could get rid of this lump in my throat.
