Yesterday marked the first day back to school. While both Ben and I are excited for 2nd grade my heart also aches just a little at how fast he is growing up. 2nd grade was my favorite and I just loved my teacher so I’m hoping the same is true for Ben. We’ve talked a lot lately about being a leader and that is my hope for him this upcoming year. To use his humor, heart, and smarts to be an example to those around him and to encourage everyone he meets. Here’s to a great year!
