Graduate

makai graduated from preschool today.

it was a day filled with mixed emotions.

i cannot lie i lost it and blubbered.

when i saw this little boy walk in with his hat and rob, i was a mess.

he is all grown up and i don't know where the time has gone?

i have started a little tradition (this year is all about starting new traditions for me)

something i can give to them once they have finished school.

i have bought the book "Oh, the places you'll go" by Dr Seuss.

all the words written in this book are exactly everything i want to tell the boys about the wonderful journey of life and all the experiences they will meet.

so every year i am going to get his teacher to write a note to him and when he graduates year 12 i'm going to give it to him.

as a mother i get to sit back and watch him grow,

 i am grateful for specific people that heavenly father places in makai's life to help and guide him along his way.

his teachers this year were amazing.

they were placed in makai's life by no mistake at all.

they have helped him grow into a boy who is ready to start kindy.

they have loved him and accepted him for who he is.

they have been patient with him and they have believed in his abilities.

i am so so very grateful for them.

his teacher left his class with a quote today from the exact book that i love love so much.

Today is your day,

Your mountain is waiting,

So…get on your way.

if you haven't read Oh, the places you'll go you need to.

but have your tissues ready - if your anything like me you'll ball your eyes out.

this is my message to my little boy today.

Congratulations KaiKai!

Today is your day.

You're off to great places!

You're off and away!
