Connor loves ice cream!
This has been hard.
It is awful for me to watch you leave the house every morning in tears. You don't like school--it is too long. I agree wholeheartedly.
It comforts me to know that when you get there you are happy again, smiling and laughing and even participating in class. PE was hard the first week for you, but yesterday you told me it's your favorite thing.
I know you have friends and that helps me too. You are such a leader. That is one of the many things I absolutely love about you. You stand up and command attention from everyone around you. It makes me eager to see what you will become someday.
You need this. You need the education obviously, but you need to be away from me and around other people. I think I've helped you get this far, but you need others to teach you more. I know this and it helps me. There are a lot of days that I want to pull you out of school and wait until next year. But I realize that's not the best option for you.
I hope you are a good example. I truly believe you are. You have never been a follower and I hope you can lead others to choose the right. Make me proud Connor--I know you will.
Love,
Mom

Oh my heart is breaking. I don't like these stretching moments. Wish they could be so sweet forever.
It's almost impossible to comprehend, but we even had to leave our Heavenly Father to learn and stretch on our own. Fortunately, part of that learning and stretching is the opportunity to come to know God while we are mortal beings here on earth. That is by far the most important thing we do here, and leaving mother is the first step in mortality. Just as God is still with us if we only approach him, mother is still with us also.
