Dante's First Day of School!!!!!

I think it finally hit me last Friday. I felt it a little when Dante first started walking, then he started talking, then he moved out of his crib, then we bought him his "big boy" bed....but NOW that he started SCHOOL...oh yeah, I finally think that my Dante has officially grown up and my "baby" is a thing in the past. He did GREAT and it was nice to see Dante finally interacting with kids his age. He's been riding the coat-tails of Gabby's life until now....now it's his time. Of course I was SO emotional that whole morning but with my tears I never had felt more proud of my baby boy. He is starting his journey.....I'm so excited for him!!
