My Kids Are Starting A Big New Chapter trying not to cry

Transcript

Tomorrow, London attends school for the very first time. I can't believe we're already here. Didn't they just transition them from their crib to a toddler bed? My heart is so full because they're ready. I'm so excited for them. We reviewed what to bring to school, their backpacks are packed, they've chosen their favorite water bottles for school. We've labeled everything like the school requested to ensure that Brecken and London know what items are theirs. Their first day of school outfits are picked out. We went to the welcome orientation just a few days ago. They got to meet their teachers, they got to tour their classroom, and they got to meet all of their other classmates. London's already made friends with a couple of girls. They're so ready. This new chapter is not only special for Brecken and London, but it's special and important for Chris and I. It's another milestone that we've helped them reach. We've raised them and helped them prepare as best we can. And now it's time for them to spread their wings a little bit and spend a few hours at a place without dad or daddy. Miss Allison, I'm so proud of them. And I know this new adventure is just the beginning.
