"If I had my child to raise all over again, I'd build self-esteem first and a house later. I'd finger paint more and point the finger less. I would do less correcting and more connecting. I'd take my eyes off the watch and watch with my eyes. I'd take more hikes and fly more kites. I would stop playing serious and seriously play. I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars. I'd do more hugging and less tugging." Dian Lommas

Preschool Graduation
Kaden graduated from preschool last Monday, the 28th. Tear. Sniffle. I know this is what every parent says, but, where has the time gone? He is growing up so fast and quickly gone from a baby boy to toddler to little boy to bigger, little boy.
Kaden is smart and has such a cute, fun, outgoing and energetic personality. He genuinely loves people. He is athletic and coordinated too. He has a penchant and apptitude for music and dancing. In other words, he's got rhythm baby! Looks aren't everything, but he is so handsome! LOVE doesn't begin to encapsulate how much I feel for this kid. He is my reason for living. My reason for wanting to be and do better.
A couple of months ago we attended kindergarten orientation. The school had all of the kids in a classroom doing activities while the parents were in the gymnasium listening to the presentations and getting registration information. When it was over, the kids were brought into the gym to meet up with their parents. In came this crowd of kids and I thought to myself, "Oh, they are so little." At the very back of this crowd was a boy a full head taller than all of the other kids. It was Kaden. I love that he's tall and I hope he stays tall. I would love for him to be a tall man and with his father's build and my brain. Fingers crossed!

I am a working mother who is trying to do her best to provide for and raise my son to be an upstanding citizen while finding a little humor along the way.
