First Day of School for Hayden

So last week Hayden was officially back at preschool (aka. Mother's Day Out) 2 days a week. Isn't he getting so big? He officially looks like a little boy in those pictures. Where did my baby go?!
He proudly sported his brand new orange Pottery Barn Kids back pack, lunch box, and duffle bag lovingly given by Grandmommy.
Daddy wanted to be a special escort for the big day and helped Hayden learn where to put away his sleep mat, lunch box, and drink cup in their proper place in the hall outside his classroom door. He is so blessed to have such a good Daddy.
He was warmly greeted by his teachers Miss Susan and Miss Melissa. We are told they are some of the best in program so we know he will have a great year!
He will be learning a little Spanish this year as part of the curriculum. We will see how that goes.

.... On a side note - I was sitting with Hayden eating lunch yesterday and he started pointing out pictures on the shelf in our breakfast nook and telling me who the pictures were of and a brief description of each. He looks at an old picture of himself at the Pumpkin Patch and says, "There is me in a wagon." "There is Evan in his swing." Heres comes the most unexpected and precious comment of them all...... He sees a picture of me in my wedding dress and veil and exclaims, "Look Mommy, it is you as a princess!"
That comment from my sweet son will be forever engraved in my heart. If even for one moment I felt like a real princess, it was that one.
