Grant.
He's exuberant, out-going, laid-back.
funny. observant. enthusiastic.
And now, he's bouncing into his 4-year-old preschool class.
Re-wind about 8 years,
and we were about to unkowingly face a long, heart-wrenching journey
with infertility and pregnancy loss.
where we would be given a less than 4% chance of conceiving.
Grant is our miracle baby.
And now he's our miracle baby going to pre-school.
bittersweet, huh?
He loves it.
loves, loves, loves it.
I love that he loves it.
I love that he's so excited to go to school he sleeps with his lunch box.
I love that he's so excited that he can barely take his jacket off before running into his classroom.
but, a small look-back and "see ya, mom!" might do my heart good right about now.
Because they'll always be babies in our hearts, won't they?
This bittersweet stuff?
I have a feeling it's not going to end any time soon.
So even though he'll always be itty-bitty in my heart,
I pray that he'll grow into a man who's passionate about serving his Savior.
who's walking in faith.
who's exuberance is a zeal for the Lord.
Happy pre-school, Grant Owen!
your momma may have cried a few tears.
and this girl?
she misses her bubby.
lots.
But, we love watching you grow up.
just slow it down a bit, okay?
