In 14 days my little boy will graduate from VPK. In 14 days he will officially be a kindergartner. In 14 days it will be summer time and I no longer have to wake up every morning to drive my little man to school only to pick him up 3 hours later. He only has 9 days left of school. 9 days! Where has this year gone!? I have a 5 year old! And he is almost a kindergartner! How does this even happen?
I'll probably cry at his graduation. Heck I've already cried each time he practices that cute little song they will perform graduation night. I don't want Tyler to grow up! I don't want him to leave me all day for school, sure I'll have Lil but I wont have my boy. What will I do without him? What will she do without him? Sometimes she cant even stand being alone with me for 3 hours, how can I expect her to be alone with me for a full school day?
Life is moving too fast for me. I swear we just had VPK orientation and now... now??? Now! It's over in a few freaking days! I'll probably still be wearing the same nail polish I have on right now, that's how fast this day is coming! Is it possible to have your kid fail VPK? Like can't I just keep him in that grade and be all oblivious about him maturing and all that?
Do you know the worst part of all this? He's excited about it! He is excited to be a kindergartner! He talks about it all the time. And you know what comes with becoming a kindergartner?? GROWING OLDER! He cant stop talking about turning 6! 6! I mean the kid JUST turned 5 and already he's looking forward to his next birthday? Jeez can I get a break? I'm not good with change, and I'm especially not good with my little boy being excited about said changes! No way! I can't be excited with him. I keep trying to talk him into not wanting to grow up (you know because it's totally possible to decide to be a little kid forever) but he just wont have it.
Tyler wants to grow up and be an adult like me so he can become a red Power Ranger. Yes, his dream job is to be a Power Ranger and while some parents may tell their children it's not real and that they cant become a "red Power Ranger" I don't tell my kid that stuff. Because someone has to play the Power Ranger's on the tv show right? So if that's his dream then he can have at it. Although I doubt Samurai Power Ranger's will be around when he's old enough to be one, it will probably turn out to be Zombie Power Ranger's or alien Power Ranger's or something like that. But whatever he want's to do I fully support. And I can jump on board with that idea if he can, you know, stay a 5 year old kid for like 10 more years? Maybe? Maybe longer...
