“The Last, First Day!”

Sean started his senior year today. After he got out of the shower and got dressed and ready for school, he came into my room where I was laying in bed still kind of groggy. Mornings are always rough for me as of late. I saw him walk into my doorway and I exclaimed, “The last, first day!” He smiled and gave me a hug and a kiss before he left for school. I remained in bed until my Mom came over to get me.

As Sean left, he told me that he loved me and I told him that I loved him too and to have a good day. I put Gavin Degraw on my phone and kind of dozed off until my Mom came over. This song that I posted yesterday is what I need these days.

As a laid there somewhere between sleep and wake, I thought about his first day of first grade at Divine Child. He is far removed from first grade and I know that I have pictures, I just have to find them. I didn’t take a first day picture today pbecause I was still in bed when he left but I’m really proud of him and the fact that he is in his last year of school.

I thought about my Dad and imagined what he would think of my baby now! I’m sure I will write about it soon but I can’t just yet. I called Sean when school was over just before he was on his way home and I let him know that his graduation party is 311 days away. He laughed and it warmed my heart.
