Yep.....I was one of "them"

                          "Why aren't you up yet? It's your first day of school!"
                                           The shirt says it all!
Well today was actually the second day of school but his first for actually knowing whose class he's in. I'm not going to beat around the bush at all when I say last Tuesday was tough. I took him in, gave him a kiss (cause I could feel it coming on) and turned around and walked out quickly. I didnt make eye contact with a single person in the hall, Brandon and I walked out in complete silence, and as soon as we were outside I started. Crying. I'm not sure why but just the thought of what I had done tore me up.
Today was his first day back. And it was his turn to cry. He has the best teacher. She's everything you could ever imagine when you hear the word "kindergarten teacher" and I feel so lucky that Braxton has her. I'm not exactly sure why he started but he did. She came over and rubbed his back and Brandon and I walked out.
We walked out. It was so hard to do but I felt like he needed to know she's the one to go to when he's upset while he's at school. This school stuff is killing me.
Tomorrow is another huge hurdle. School bus. He went to bed very apprehensive tonight. I'm sure he'll be scared and unlike me who had my big brother on the bus he has no one. He'll be all by himself. Brandon is doubting whether we should start this week and I think we need to get all these things over with. Am I doing the right thing?
Pray for my little man tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes!
