October 14th marked the first field trip that Cale has ever been on. I have to admit, I was emotional about this. I was not emotional about the first day of school, but there was just something about seeing my youngest on a school bus that got to me. I wasn't expecting that at all! I remember thinking as the bus drove off that at some point we're going to run out of firsts...and that is what makes me sad. Don't get me wrong, I am completely content with the fact that my kids are 4, 7 and 10. I love that they are no longer "babies" and that they are old enough to take care of many of their own needs. Still, the emotions of this day caught me off-guard as I accompanied my baby on his first field trip to the Pumpkin Patch. Thankfully by the time we arrived at the PP I had myself under control and we had ourselves a great time! Here are some pics from our day...
Cale and I had this sweet little boy in our group for the day
I had to laugh as we got onto the train and this little girl jumped on next to Cale before I had a chance to sit next to him. Her mother said her name and I said, "so that's Kate! I've heard so much about her, I am so glad the feeling is mutual!" Her mother went on to tell me that Kate has been telling her since the second day of school that she is going to marry Cale! I know that Cale likes Kate as like he likes all of his friends and speaks about her often, but so far he tells me he is never going to have a girlfriend or get married because he "does not want to stick his tongue in someone else's mouth"! heehee Kate however REALLY likes Cale! She had her arm around him the entire train ride and kept trying to hold his hand the entire day. Cale didn't want apart of any of it and poor Kate's mom was mortified. It was pretty cute though!
I knew Cale was my child for sure when he didn't want to go into the cages with the animals! I completely understood!!!! I've always been skittish of animals...like mother like son!
We had a great day!
