BrayLon💖... You have begged me to ride your bike to school all year... & I have had an "excuse" why you werent ready just yet...Well This morning all the stars lined up for you when we couldn't find my keys... I was almost sure they disappeared forever.. & I was freaking out about getting you to school when I looked over at your bike in the yard.... So I told you to hop on & jet to school.. (Its only a couple blocks after all😏)... At least that's what I kept saying to myself after I kissed you & sent you on your way .. You smiled so big & without hesitation hopped on & said Bye mom!!! (You have so patiently waited for this) I watched you till I couldnt see you anymore then ran back inside & I continued to frantically look for them Because I just HAD to drive to the school & make sure you made it... As I drove to your school & didnt see you I smiled in relief & also felt kind of sad... & when I reached the bike rack & saw your bike .. Yes, I cried... Because my heart was so proud of you... & the worry & doubt in me felt so silly. I don't give you enough credit my smart boy & today you showed me that sometimes even if momma aint ready, you might be... You have also shown me the love you have for me & respect is so great because no matter how much you knew you could make it & wanted too, you havent fought me about it & you have let momma continue to take you because it makes momma happy💕 This is just the beginning of our newest adventures.. Where you're growing & want more chances to show me how you have grown but the momma in me gives you reasons you just might need to slow down..& for this I am sorry. Just know that letting you grow is already something I struggle with... & I know theres days I frustrate you because I try to keep you in my bubble & even though its hard for me one thing I know I will always try to do, like my momma did for me is support you & let you grow & become more independent even if it has to be a last min choice 😉 This morning though as I rushed to get in my car & make it to your school, I learned that no matter how much I let you grow, the momma in me will never let go of the baby in you... #mybraybray#firstborn
