Colby was not happy yesterday when I reminded he that school started today. He cried huge tears! This morning he was really spastic while he was being dressed and was fighting it the entire time. Finally he settled down and seemed resigned to the fact that he was going.
I even got him to count with me all the way to number 6! He said school, one, two, three, four, five and six. He told John, Love you. He’s definitely saying more all the time. You have to really listen because the words are still garbled but they are words!
Here is the end result right before the bus came.
and because Riley could not be in a picture here she is pajamas and all.
Colby, I hope your new year is fantabulous just like you! (yes it’s my made up word but I like it!)

He is wonderfully handsome! I hope he had a great day!
Awww, I hope he had a good day.
Hi Colby,
I am so happy for you that you started first grade! My granddaughter starts first grade in 2 weeks. Both of you will have so much fun and meet new friends.
Hugs from Terri and family
Hi Erin,
Colby looks so cute for his first day and how sweet that Riley is in her pjs and beside him to see him off. It is wonderful that he is using more words too.
Hugs to you too, Terri
I am once again in awe of that young man.
aw….I hope he has a fantabulous day too.
They both are so beautiful.
Honestly, the first day is always the hardest…..on the moms. Never failed….every year, once they were out the door (untill they hit their teens), I would brake down and cry. Stay busy and the day will pass fast, and before you know it he will be home again.
Wishing you all a wonderful day…
