First Day Of school for Poppers!! Yay!!!

I thought today was going to be a hard day. last night I was sure of it! The day That Hunter passed away and I told Cole that Hunter went to heaven.. UGH!! the first thing Cole said to me was" well who is going to get me from class and take me to my class for school now"?? ( little did he know Hunter was off to junior high this year) but his big brother was his protector,hero,best friend etc.
Hunter and Cole have almost all there lives shared a room and when they didn't Cole would still have to sneak in Hunters room.  Hunter was always my early bird, Cole likes to sleep in so Hunter would get him up every morning for school.
I was nerves about that too!!
This morning was Cole's first day of school without his big brother, his first real big concern and he did it!
( with a little help from heaven ) I woke up to get him up and he was up and ready,had already made himself a waffle and was set!! ( except the hair and teeth thing ) but he did great. I'm so proud of the big steps he is making and growing up to be a strong little boy.. I love you Buddy!!! you are doing awesome!!!

first day at a new school and  3rd grade

Next big task is the bus..

  2. He is so cute Linds!! Handsome dude for sure. I am glad today went better than you expected. I am so sorry I didn't make it up there this week like I planned. I started school again and have so much homework!
    Anyway, I am sure Hunter was there in spirit helping his little brother today.
    Love you!

  3. He has learned from the best! He is a strong young man. You have always taught your boys they can do anything. They are blessed with an amazing mom. Your boys are who they are because of you. That is why Hunter and Cole are so loved by so many!
