Enjoy it while I can, right?

I had to share this story since it won't be long before he will change his tune...

Every morning, Connor and I have the same routine when we arrive to school. We walk in the building, go to his hook at the West end of the building to hang up his school bag, walk through the office area and some of the classrooms as we head to the East room. The East room is where the "daycare" kids start their day before classes start at 9am. He gives me a kiss and hug and he heads off to pick out an activity for the morning.

Since his school includes older kids up through 3rd grade, some of the parents drop the kids off in the parking lot or at the front door. Connor inquired about this..."Why do some parents not walk their kids to the East room and let them go by themselves?"

I explained to him that it is because they are bigger and that when he gets bigger, we could do the same. He said he didn't want to get bigger because then he wouldn't get a hug and kiss from me in the East room. It was so sweet! I know it won't be long before he is asking me to drop him off a block away so he isn't seen with his mommy...so I will enjoy it while I can.
