The Dude

…is 5.  Can’t believe it. It’s hard to even say. Asa is 5. I have a 5 year old child. Na, na, no that can’t possibly be right.  But it is. In May 2005 I brought home the most beautiful little red, crying, squirmy creature I had ever laid eyes on. And he was mine and I was totally freaked that I was his mama. And WE were responsible for this child’s upbringing. What a terrfying thought. What if we do something wrong or make a mistake? I remember thinking “who okay’d this? Shouldn’t I have taken a test or something?”  Mistakes were definitely made along the way (and still are) but that’s life right? Every day is a learning experience for both parties when you’re the first.

Here are just a few photos from his official 5 year session. I did these in honor of him starting Kindergarten in the Fall. Aren’t they cute? Will share more later. We are very proud of this boy and can’t wait to see how he continues to amaze us in big kid school. Love you big boy.

notice the annie leibovitz book? Atta boy!
