Please indulge a grandmother on Grandparents' Day for sharing more photos of her grandson's first day of school. He was so happy. So excited. No mama; no papa this time. He climbed the stairs of that bus like an old pro.
Hmmmm, I do believe I know why. Check the backpack; check the name of that bus.
Right there by the 16...THOMAS! Who knew that Thomas the Train was also Thomas the Schoolbus?
Thanks for visiting... It's so much fun to connect with the Mosaic Monday bloggers again!
Big Thanks to Mary at Little Red

What a sweet little one! so cute it goes so fast as I hear my "little" ones playing video games, they are 17 and 21!
ReplyDeleteAll grown up and starting school --he's a adorable, Vee! Was his little brother upset that he wasn't going to school as yet?
ReplyDeleteMy grandson now loves Thomas the Train. I guess all little boys do!
What a cutie!!!!! Great memories for both of you.
ReplyDeleteA new exciting world awaits him. And what lovely photos to remember this day. My grandson has a backpack just like that!
ReplyDeleteJust to cute!! Now that he is starting school, watch out!!! they soon know so much more than we do. lol. Enjoy! Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Oh Vee, he's looking so grown up- they just change overnight - He's lost that little baby look. It's tough on mama to watch their baby get on that big bus! Glad Thomas is going with him!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful mosaic. He is very cute.
ReplyDeleteVee, I've only seen a few mosaics tonight but I know already this is my favorite. As a former teacher your mosaic brings back so many memories. your grandson is very special!
ReplyDeleteVee,
ReplyDeleteGreat mosaic. Handsome boy!
Have a great week.
Carol
Oh what a sweetheart! He's so addorable and looks ready for his first day of school.
ReplyDeleteVee,
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable little guy. Oh my they grow so very fast. He looked like he was doing just fine, how did mom and grnadma do?
Hope your week is filled with joys and blessings!
Nonni had a meltdown on the trial run day; Mama had hers on the real day. We're all doing well now, thanks for asking!
ReplyDeleteCute pictures! What memories they brought back to me of my little boy climbing the bus steps the first time!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Penny
Oh Vee,
ReplyDeleteSooooo cute. The first day of school, such a milestone. My girls like Thomas when Ringo Star used to narrate the television show form the UK. Does he still narrate the show?
That doll house usually houses my Santa collection on my mantle. It was sitting there waiting for Christmas, so I thought maybe I can use it for my etsy display. It's much narrower than a typical one, some kind of original display I think.
Your mosaic is adorable, and I love that last photo especially. Happy Mosaic Monday.
Karen
Your grandson is as cute as can be! I love that smile. You can see happiness written all over his face.
ReplyDeleteHe is adorable Vee. My son Massimo loves Thomas too and used the backpack last year. (then some big kid told him it was a baby backpack so he switched to Spiderman this year).
ReplyDelete((Hugs))
Laura
Love it! What a gorgeous little grandson you have and how exciting to take the bus by himself! Thomas....an inspired name!

So adorable Vee but it also reminds me of how sad I felt when my son walked throught he school gates for the first time.
ReplyDeleteJust stopped by to "ooh and ah." He really is a cutie!
ReplyDeleteMargaret =)
What a cutie-patootie! And love the mosaic AND you header!
ReplyDeleteHi! I found you through another blog and what grabbed my attention about your blog is that you were playing music from Anne of Green Gables! Kindred spirits! I sent my firstborn to first grade last week and he too didn't skip a beat! It's always the mamas and the grandmamas that have the harder time! :-)
ReplyDeleteLook forward to seeing more of you here in Blogland!
