Today was a day of firsts, and lasts. Cwynn started his first day in church as a Sunbeam. They leave nursery behind, and have an actual class to go to where they learn simple lessons on gospel principles. The primary president called and asked that they bring their favorite stuffed animal. For Cwynn, that is "Ray", his stingray we got at the Natural History Museum in DC when we lived in Virginia. It is his best friend and go-to guy when he needs quiet, cuddle time. They were taught about "Sharing", and allowed their friends to be held by other kids in class. They said Cwynn did great, and was very excited to show "Ray" to everyone else.
While I am excited that he is taking this step, I am a bit sad. He is my baby, and when he does something for the first time, it is bittersweet, knowing it is the last child I will experience it with. I know it sounds silly, but it is a stage in my life that I am adjusting to. This year, 2013, will be a series of new events..and I am going to have to face them all..eventualy. Maybe I will borrow "Ray" for some support.
