Today is your first day of 1st grade.

You were nervous. You aren't a huge fan of change and you love to know every detail of the day before anyone's even eaten breakfast. But you were ready.

When I asked you what you were most excited to learn this year, before I could even finish the sentence you exclaimed, "SCIENCE. Because I wanna use those tube things to make stuff happen." Whatever that even means.

You listed off a few friends you knew would be in your class, and then said that you were also excited to make some new friends this year.

Your main goal for today though? To "not fall off the monkey bars and have to go to the nurse the first day like I did last year."

I love you and I am already so proud of you. I hope you always know that.
