Bring on Summer!!!!

Well, I finally did it....I got the paperwork dropped off for Ethan!  Yes, I sat on it for a little over a week, b/c I truly couldn't get myself to drop it off.  I know this all sounds crazy, but I truly am having a hard time with it.  The fact that life is going when all I want it to do is stop spinning, so we can enjoy these moments just a tad bit longer....LOL  We have truly enjoyed every bit of being parents, we love our boys, and we really do look forward to the next chapters in life; however, when those next chapters are here it's like we forget that we know they were coming or something, hahaha!!!  Anyway, back to the paperwork.....On Friday, I knew what I had to do, so I found my way back to the school once I dropped the boys off at the sitter.  I started crying as I pulled in and as I was sitting in my car, looking out at the playground, I envisioned Ethan being out there for recess and realizing my little guy is ready for the next chapter of his life to begin, so I need to be happy for him and pull myself together.....LOL!!!  As much as I am not, he is and so I grabbed the paperwork and headed in the school.  I walked in and found my way to the office, while I was walking down the hall, I couldn't help but look at how neat the school was and when I got to the office, I saw Mrs. Rippeth (the school secretary) and she greeted me with her big smile and instantly I felt an ease come over me.  So, we started going through the paperwork, chit-chatting about Ethan (b/c she actually lives 3 doors down from us), and while we were talking in walked a kindergarten teacher.  Mrs. Rippeth introduced me, and once I said my last name, Miss Bowden said, "you must be Ethan's mom"....How did she know his name, I didn't tell her, Mrs. Rippeth didn't tell her??  Well, that very morning, they finalized the roster for the kindergarten classes and out of the 3 kindergarten teachers in the building, Miss Bowden, came in that office that very moment.  She said, we just finalized the classes this morning and Ethan is in my class.  She showed me the sheet, pointed out Ethan, and shook my hand.  What a great lady and as I was talking with her, I knew we made the right decision for him.  I'm still amazed how all of this is happening and how God is watching out for us, b/c he is sure giving us the reassurance we need with both our boys, so that we know we are doing the right thing.  I'm amazed how he puts people in your life, at the very moments you need them, to help us get through situations.  I was so overwhelmed with this the week prior, but last Friday, changed my outlook and gave me a new frame of mind.  Ethan is sooooo excited to go to his "big" school and ready to meet Miss Bowden......All of this makes me happy and now, I'm so ready to enjoy the summer with the boys.....so, no more fretting about the inevitable.....bring on Summer!!!!  =)
