Aidan's first day in first grade

What a difference 3 yrs makes. This was him when he was 3 and first started school. He's now 6 and has grown so much. Evidence of growth exhibited by the backpack, believe it or not he's had the same one for 3 1/2 school yrs. Just look at his old picture and you see his beautiful little soul. I won't forget being so worried he wouldn't get on the bus and leave me. I prayed all week prior and talked to him about every chance I got. Low and behold he just walked right up the steps, got on and was off to school w/o so much as one tear. He was so grown up that day for being such a little guy. He's such a cutie pie and he just keeps getting cuter.
