bracky's big day came.
he is now an official kindergartener.
this little boy has been on emotional rollercoaster for the last couple of days.
there have been hysterical laughs which turn into tears.
this boy is my sensitive one.
he feels deeply on the inside but you can't tell whats going on from the outside.
so in his moments of silence he has come up to me and given me a big hug or a kiss on the cheek or he has expressed some of his fears about beginning kindy in quiet moments together.
he was scared of not knowing where the toilets were or not finding friends.
but today he put his collared shirt buttoned up, navy shorts, white socks, black shoes on and he has never looked more handsome or more prepared.
he was so excited and couldn't wait to leave for kindy.
we got to school and he walked in side by side with his big brother.
makai showed him where the toilets were incase he needed to go and the bin so he could put his rubbish away.
the bell ran and it was time for braxton to line up,
this is where the emotions and fears set in
(for both he and i)
i took him over to his line and he looked up at me with his big braxton eyes
and wrapped his arms around me and gave me the biggest braxton hug.
i'm not sure if he was hugging for himself or hugging for me.
with tears in my eyes we pulled away and he went to his spot in line.
the teacher said to the kids to give your parents one last hug and my dear sweet braxton ran up and gave me another hug but this time i was able to let him go more easily
because i knew he was ready to go and conquer this new big journey
he is embarking on.
he has no idea how amazing he is going to become.
he is my mini-me.
i will always get him and he will always get me.
i will miss him each day,
he is the one that will come and randomly give me a hug or kiss on the cheek when i'm feeling a little down or i'm a little quite.
he makes me laugh with the little cheeky things he does.
i know he is ready to take on the world and the world will be better for having him in it.
