Kindergarten...Here we come!



How did this happen? Really, how did this happen? How did we go from pacifier, late night feedings, and cooing to kindergarten testing?
This time 5 years ago, I was preparing for the parish wide kindergarten testing and for our first baby. Here we are now on the edge of shopping for school supplies and uniforms.
After lots of discussion, pray and tears (from me), we decided to apply to send Hayden to Central Texas Christian School. It's a wonderful small private school on the border of Temple and Belton. It wasn't an easy decision for us to make as Hayden's preschool is fabulous. However, it's the decision that we came up with and God gave us peace about it.
Hayden had to go in for kindergarten testing on Monday. True to his nature, he was very charming. He shook hands with all the people he was introduced to. I, nervously, sat in the hallway while he was testing. I pretended to read my book, but really couldn't concentrate. Again, I can't believe that we are at the point of kindergarten.
I'm so incredibly blessed to be identified as Hayden's mommy and I am so proud of the kid he is. Last night during his devotion time, we were talking about patience. The devotion talked about "God has a plan for you". I couldn't help wondering, what does God have in store for this clever little guy. I love him so much and cherish all our quiet times together.
With love to all!

  1. Probably the first in many moments where we have to "wait outside the door" and let them shine. You are a great parent, Kori. Your husband isn't bad, either :)
