Now only 4 (almost 5) years later he is the last one at home. We can "quick" run into the grocery store. ( -vs- carrying a car seat and an infant and two toddlers being kicked along, praying that they don't dart in front of a car, while balancing a diaper bag and a grocery list) I can decide to stop into the thrift store to see if they have a coat in a kid's size 8 and it really is a quick stop in.
With him, like the others, in the beginning of the summer I thought there was no way he was ready for pre-school in the Fall. Much less ready for Kindergarten the next year. But, he grew over the summer. What is it about the fresh air and sunshine? Not just grew physically (although he is as big as his older brother) but has grown in maturity and attitude.
This boy is ready, and he CAN do it himself.

Well now for two mornings a week - this is true. You will have to buddy. Mommy will not be there.
My 4 (almost 5) year old is a pre-schooler this year. Whaaaaaaaat?

It was only a few years ago (duh- 4 almost 5!) When I looked into the rear view mirror and saw four car seats lined up with four tiny faces looking at me - I knew I was in trouble. Talk about overwhelming!Now only 4 (almost 5) years later he is the last one at home. We can "quick" run into the grocery store.
