Beau's 1st day of preschool.

Well, we did it, we took Beau to his first day of preschool. I never thought this day would come, but boy did it come fast :( I can still remember holding him when he was tiny and thinking to myself, "There's NO WAY I'm sending my precious baby to school in the care of another person!" On the other hand, I did have a bout of postpartum depression, which would explain a lot of the weird thinking I had when he was little. Oh boy, I was a nut!
But, Beau did great - in fact, he was pretty determined to let me know that I was not staying with him. Mommy did good, as well. No tears or any anxiety...whew. Daddy, well he's another story. There were no tears from him, but he was on the verge.
Beau said he had a great day, made some new friends, and is excited to go back. What more can a mommy ask for?
It's so neat that C.F. and I get to experience all these new stages in his life with him. What a privilege. He's such a blessing.
I remember when we were first married, and the conversations we would have about our children. We would try to imagine what they were gonna look like, their little personalities, likes and dislikes. Never could I have imagined that it was gonna be this good.
That's how good God is!!! He pours his goodness into our lives, and he will use our children to demonstrate that goodness. I praise God that I know him as a good God. Not some religious, stingy, mean God. The church has done an awful job getting that message out. He is so good.
That all being said, knowing how good He is, helps me to show His goodness to Beau and Lucy. If there's one thing they'll grow up knowing, it's that God is good...all the time!!
