With a healthy dose of uncertainty that didn't devolve into tears, the younger lad started preschool this morning. He was familiar with the setting from Vacation Bible School this summer, and he was buoyed by the hope of seeing his brother the first grader on the playground. They did in fact see each other, which was the declared highlight of their respective school days (that and lunch, according to the newly-minted preschooler).
After school we visited my sister all moved into her spiffy dorm room. This brought back a wealth of memories for me of her as a wee lass about the age of my preschooler visiting me in my college dorm room. Those weekly visits she and my mom paid me were always highlights, and it's an honor to return the favor now. We love having Babycakes so close by.
Enveloped in the grace of God and the protection of his angels and ours, we have so much to be thankful for such a relatively smooth transition to the school scene and this latest round in our Game of Life.
