I cannot believe that the summer is behind us already! I'm not even going to try to post all of the things that we did because it would take forever and I know I would forget half of it. I'm just going to start fresh and dive into a new post and a new school year! I don't know when it happened but at some point in the last year I looked away for two seconds and Eli grew up. He's still my little guy but he's in Kindergarten now and will be away from me for a huge portion of the day. To be honest I think that I was more stressed about his first day than he was. It will certainly be an adjustment for Simon and I, but I look forward to the times that I will get to spend one on one with him because before I know it he will be going into Kindergarten too. It's funny how Eli going into school brings out all the insecurities that you had when you were a kid. I worry about him getting bullied or put down by the other kids and even not being able to put his inside shoes on by himself. All members of the Larsen family know that this kind of worrying comes with the territory and no amount of reassurance from our spouse is going to stop it. He did so well on the first day of school though and I am so proud of him for being so brave. I know that he will have a terrific year and make tons of friends because that's just the type of boy that he is. I'm also sure that he will fall in love with more than one of the little girls in his class and I challenge them not to do the same based on these photos...
