September 3rd 2009......
Tristan has turned THREE and starts Pre School today
Seemed like just yesterday we were worried about rather this beautiful boy would ever be....Than we were excited that he was alive and well followed by worry that everything would be OK with him....worry...worry..worry..
This boy is truly a angel of God ....While he may have some challenges as he grows he does everything any other child does. He faces each challenge head on and with his arms wide open.
First day is greeted with smiles, excitement ,and a backpack that is almost as big as he is, he gets to ride the BUS....he is going to SCHOOL...
Not quite so exciting for mom who takes the day off and watches as strangers assist her son onto the big yellow bus. She follows said bus to school...taking pictures the whole 5 minutes. Watches as he almost tumbles down the steps..caught on tape...and again walks off with strangers. Watches as he is shown the first steps of the day and than decides it is time to leave(the teacher has told her she can stay). Back she goes at 3:30 to watch him walk the halls again and get back on the big yellow bus and get off at the sitters house.
New beginning for Tristan..his mom...dad...and me his grandmom...
Speaking of wonderful things on my way to work on the 3rd I was following a school bus and this is what I seen.
Standing on a hillside is a family waiting for this bus..as it approaches and stops the dad breaks away and lopes down the hill and goes to the door where he greets a cute little brownhaired girl. Hand in hand they turn and walk together up the hill to where mom, sis, and a baby awaits for her. They gather around as she shows them what she has brought home...another first..beautiful to me..priceless to them.
