Dear Cade,
I hate to admit it but I had serious doubts about placing you in preschool last year. It wasn't only that you were starting in the middle of the year-I just didn't think you were ready. You had just potty trained, were still taking a nap and averaging at least one huge melt down a day. You were constantly pushing everyone's buttons. You were demanding and inpatient. I was terrified that you would be "that kid"...the one none of the parents can stand. I'm happy to say that I was COMPLETELY wrong.
Tonight you graduated from preschool. Your years unmarred by incident. You were nothing short of a model student. Attentive, curious and polite. You made friends easily and were well liked by both your peers and your teachers. The "Cade Man" has been loved by all.
It's hard to watch my baby boy end this chapter of his childhood. But I do it safe in the knowledge that you will be successful. You are not "that kid". You are my kid. My big boy. I'm so very proud of you.
I love you with all my heart,
Mommy

ReplyDeleteI cried at my nephews preschool graduation 3 or 4 years ago. I have two more graduating from preschool this year.......I don't think I can handle it. I'm gonna be screwed when my kid moves on!
"Let them be Little....."
He is a hansdome little devil.. and that was a sweet letter to your little man
ReplyDeleteThat was sweet! I'm sure he'll look back on that letter with smiles in future years. He IS the cutie, though! Hey - is one of those women you?
ReplyDeleteaw, maybe he just needed a little MORE, you know? More kids, more things to do, more things to learn ... to keep his attention. He obviously was ready for it.
