Afterward, his best buddy (Alexander's official title for his friend), Luke, had a plan to celebrate. "Ice Cream for Lunch" with just the moms -- no little sisters. It was a great plan and Sara (Luke's mom) and I jumped on the bandwagon. The boys were elated.
My little boy is going off to Kindergarten next year and I can hardly believe it. As we were getting out of the car at DQ, I started to kiss his face all over and saying:
ME: "You are getting so big, {kiss, kiss, kiss} I can't stand it, {kiss, kiss, kiss} next year you are going to Kindergarten and I am going to miss you so much, {kiss, kiss, kiss} and you are going to have so much fun... riding the bus, {kiss, kiss, kiss} eating lunch at the school, {kiss, kiss, kiss} learning and playing with all your friends.." {kiss, kiss, kiss}
Alexander: "MOMMMMMY, yeah, I will be having fun, but I will still miss you."
Okay, how do you not skip the kid cone and just buy the boy a huge ice cream cake? It was a great day!!

That's a great picture of Alexander and Mrs. Wylie. I hope ours turned out that well. Their singing was just sooo cute! It was a great year at Grace!
Such a big boy...it brings a tear to my eye! He looks so proud of himself. I love that he tells you that he will miss you Jean! Kisses to all!
