rocks to be a knox: 1st Day of PreK-2!

Well- here we are!

First day of "school." Sort of. PreK-2 is like 2 steps before preschool and 2 years before kindergarten. None the less, there's a backpack (or "packpack"), a lunch box, a sweet little bubble-blowing curriculum and that's all I needed to get little teary-eyed walking into

the building.

I had every intention of taking pictures once he as in class but I was too thrown off with the fact that he's a KID now. Dennis and I just left quietly. No tears. Rhett was fine. He found some spongy blocks to play with and didn't even look away when we walked out.

Life is really really sweet right now. I'm realizing that there's lots of change coming and so it was even more precious when Rhett helped me make breakfast this morning. We made eggs! The process requires sitting on the counter, taking the top off the milk, and splashing eggs all over the place with a fork. He usually cleans his plate after he helps, so it's a good strategy for now.

I especially love this picture because this morning when I put these shoes on him. He told me that they were beautiful.
