A lot of people have asked how Max is doing, worried about him missing his bro and his friends while they’re all at school.
But in all honesty, he’s loving life right now. He gets our undivided attention, he gets to choose what we do, and he’s having a blast.
I was worried he was going to be sad or bored, but so far, he is one happy boy.

Max set up a Moonlight picnic for us all in Puppyland. After putting them all to bed, he woke them up, set them up, and brought down the snacks.
We’ve been spending a lot of time here lately.

Max asked if he could write me a song. Then he asked me how. I’m the least musical person there is, but we did our best. He played it for when on his whistle when he was done.
Also – I hope I always remember that he wore his helmet from morning till night during the summer at this age.

GRADE 1 for Callum Danger
We all walked to school and once we were there he told us he didn’t need us to walk him in. As we waved and he walked confidently inside so many thoughts ran through my head: did I make the most of our years together? Did I cuddle him enough? Did I do enough with that precious time? Logically I know all the answers are yes. I will FOREVER be grateful that I decided to stay home with him when he turned one. I stopped looking for another job and decided to pour myself into him, and into our photography business.
It’s been a word of juggling. It’s been some days feeling endless. It was missing Gareth on those days he worked crazy long hours so I could be home with Callum.
I will FOREVER treasure that I was able to be home with him. That I could work in the cracks and lean on my parents and make this work.
Every late night, every early morning, everything was worth it.
I never wonder if he’ll be kind. I KNOW he will be. I KNOW he’ll try his best and make friends.
Callum is so ready for this, even if I’m not. I’m the proudest mom in the world today as he starts his full days away from us at school.
THE MORNING:
We wrote his name:
We measured him:
He wrote his name at his height:
