Second Day of School

Yesterday, Walker officially started 3rd grade. It was one rough morning. He has been looking forward to school but yesterday nerves were rampant at our house. Once he got to school and we wiped away the tears - he ended up having a great day. But it certainly was not a photo opportunity.

So today was a much better day and we got a few shots before he took off for school. I think he will have a great year, that first day is always hard. This year he is in a smaller class that is a combo class, 2nd and 3rd grade and he has a great teacher, Mrs. Clemow.

It is so hard to see your child with their fears and give that tough love. I was filled with joy when he asked, "Mom, please pray for me." Made my heart swell with love and of course I obliged. I know that God is working in his heart even at this tender age. Such comfort to know that God loves your children and is taking care of them. I know we will have a wonderful year and I am so looking forward to it.
