So my little girl started 4th grade this year...
Forth Grade...
....that's like a major big girl...
first day of school picture
and my little boy started kindergarten...
and starting week 2 he wasn't going to hold my hand on campus anymore...
the girl child, she still loves her mom, she will hold my hand all the way to her class and give me a hug at the door...
the boy, just a little too big for the hand holding, he will hug me good bye, just no hand holding...
but when I pick him up in the afternoons...
that sweet blue eyed lady killer
...(seriously...those eyes will stop you dead...and those hussy little 5 year old girls are noticing and always trying to sit next to him at carpet time...BACK OFF girls)
see what I mean...lady killer eyes!
...anyways that sweet little boy will run up to me when his teacher leads them out of class and throw those sweet little arms around my neck and squeeze me good...and then he runs back and hugs his teacher...
...he HUGS his teacher...how does that not melt your heart!
so now...now my little big girl will walk her brother to class some mornings...
and that little boy that is too big to hold mommy's hand as he walks across campus will reach out and hold big sister's hand as they cross the street and walk to class...
my heart melted right in two...
my 2 babies walking off to the great big world...
but not too big to hold each others hands...
place picture here of sweet kids walking away holding hands...
YEAH Right!...I couldn't get them to pose for that picture! they both looked at me like I was crazy and laughed

Very, very sweet, Kiera. The saying is very true: "Being a mother is like having your heart go walking outside of your body."
"...and Mary pondered all these things and treasured them in her heart." (Oh, and you can insert "Grandma' in there, too.)
