GROWING UP


Two nights ago Rylan asked me how to write a few different letters. I know my mom had been working on teaching him the letters in his name, so we worked for a few minutes but it just wasn't working. I told him I would get him a book tomorrow and we would work on his letters. As soon as we got home yesterday he wanted to work in his letter book. I was working on dinner so dad sat down with him. Dang, my little boy is growing up. As I watched him drawing the lines and telling his dad what animals start with what letter it really hit me. He will be 5 in January and I am not really sure were these 4 1/2 years have gone. I know I have missed so much having to work full time this last year, but I guess I really didn't realize just how much I had missed. I am so thankful to my mother and mother-in-law for taking time out of their week to watch my children. I know that these women are just as much responsible as I am for how wonderful my children are turning out. After working in his book for an hour Rylan was ready to go play again. I was very impressed that he could sit for that long and enjoyed writing out each letter. It is just a little more real that he is ready for school. Watch out kindergarten here Rylan come and he is going to know how to write his letters!
