Last night, Ethan had his very 1st Christmas concert! How cute it is to see all the kids dress up and sing the songs they've been practicing for a little over a month now. I was so excited to see him perform...not sure why, but I couldn't wait to be able to do things like this and last night it was here! Now, I have to admit, I can't believe we are here....1st grade, really???? Where in the world did time go? I sat and watched him, as he sat patiently waiting to take the stage, with his classmates that were on the other side of the gym from where I sat. I had a great view and it was weird, because as I sat there it hit me that I don't have 100% control anymore. I watched him moving around, chatting with his friends, then saw him w/ 3 girls, but I watched 1 in particular make her way up to be right beside him! There, at that moment, it was made known that I'm no longer going to be the "only" girl in his life!!! UGH!!!! It's sweet to watch, don't get me wrong, but I'm just shocked that this is now our life.....again I ask, where did the time go??? As I gazed across the gym, I hear "and now here's our 1st graders" and with that it was showtime!!! He, they, all the 1st graders did so good.....all their hard work paid off! I know, I have several more years with my boys, but I just can't help the feelings I feel when the realization that they are growing up hit me right smack in the face! As time passes and events happen, I sure do love these moments; even though, they only last for a brief moment!
