School Days Layouts

Isn't he adorable? Elijah will be starting Kindergarten in the fall so I created this layout to express some of my feelings about that. Journaling reads: Sometimes, I wish you could stay my little boy for just a little longer. That you weren't really starting Kindergarten in the fall. That you would stop growing up so fast! But mostly, I really just wish you a smooth & happy transition as you start school this fall...oh, & that I don't cry like a baby on your first day! Love you!
