Today was James' first day of school. I could tell that he was a little nervous when I dropped him off but he didn't put up a fuss. I, on the other hand, was a bit teary eyed on the way back to the car. I couldn't help myself. James and I have such a strong, strong bond that is deeper than words can ever express. I know that all mothers feel a bond with their children, and I do with my other two. But the bond that I have with James is just different. I don't want to say that it is deeper or more special than my other children, because it is not. The only thing that I can say with it's regards are that it is just different. When I returned to the school to pick him up, he had just eaten lunch. His teacher said that he had a great day and adjusted well to the classroom setting. I could tell that he was happy to see me. He had a huge grin on his face! When we got in the car, he wouldn't stop talking. His mind was working overtime to tell me about every detail of his day. He told me all about the classroom, class rules, and going to lunch. Lunch is a big thing for him. He remembers going to eat lunch with Trevor when he was in Torrence Creek. His cafeteria is similar and he really thinks that he's something! It is such a relief to see him excited about going to school. I am looking forward to this school year with him and watching him grow.
