Kindergarten

Last night we packed his snack together.  He packed his backpack with the essentials.  We prayed for the first day, and then we said goodnight.  He wasn’t nervous at all!  This morning he bounced out of bed with excitement, got dressed, and raced into the kitchen for breakfast.  And when we arrived at school, Cole … Continue reading →
