i have continued to write my monthly letters to my sons – i am joined by fellow photographers that are also writing letters to their sons. our hope is to express our love to our boys through both words and photographs.
you can also read last month’s letter to quinn.
for nicholas-
you started 1st grade last week – i didn’t expect it to be such an emotional time for me. you are back at the same school with the same friends, but for some reason you and i both were very nervous when walking you into school on the first day. you loved it – you love your new teacher and were very happy to see all your friends again. your only complaints were that you didn’t have snack time or morning recess anymore. you love learning and have soared! i am very proud of the boy you are becoming.
you are still enjoying piano lessons from your favorite teacher – miss glennon. i am about 95% sure the only reason you even want to take piano is because she is the teacher. i am ok with that – if you learn to play the piano because of a crush you have on your teacher, then good for you!
i sat down with you one day and asked you several questions about your likes and dislikes at the start of 1st grade. it will be interesting to see how your interests change as you continue through your education.
i love you very much nicholas and i can’t wait to see where this year takes you!
love -mommy
