Five.

Well, just like that I have a five year old.   It seems like yesterday that I was giving him his first bite of baby food or watching him take his first step. Every day that passes  the more I love  that little boy. I could seriously just be completely content hanging out with him all day long.   I should be  asleep right now, but  instead I wanted to share an update on how Kaiden's first year of public school is going.  Let me start off by saying I worried myself everyday for six months about whether putting him in prek was the right decision. Thankfully, and thank The Lord, for putting her in my life five years ago,  my friend Emily was the prek teacher in the school he would be going to for a year. So, that made me be able to "let go" a tad. Though I still text her daily about him:)

Kaiden goes full day, half day PPCD and half day Prek. I took him to school the other day and  counselor told me Kaiden was a celebrity with all the teachers at school.....That he is always happy and telling everyone he sees hello. Don't doubt that one bit :)

He is receiving some OT and speech therapy during the school day as well as  2 days a week at the center in Denton that he has been going to. Starting in November that will move to just one day a week.

 He's seriously thriving in this new environment.  He comes home daily and amazes me with what he's learned that day at school.   I tell people all the time, there isn't one thing I would change about him.  And I mean it, 100%.
