My nephew goes back to school

School just started for my nephew back home in the states a few days ago. He is in First Grade this year and was so excited about it. Last year I was the person that picked him up from the busstop after school most days. On his first day of school he was really on my mind. I was thinking about him a lot and wishing I could be there to pick him up from the bus. My sister said on the way to school that day he asked if I would be home from Korea in time that day to pick him up from the bus.
My sister was like no-she is halfway across the world. I just thought that was the cutest thing ever. On Friday night I talked to Ryan on the phone and he said he really liked First Grade. He said his teacher is very nice and pretty too. Also he has some friends in his class.
He was so great to talk to him and hear about his first day of school.
He was also excited to play an Audio greeting card on the phone to me that I had sent to him. Hallmark has the coolest thing now where you can personalize a card online and then they print it and mail it for you-very cool. I loved making it for him and it was great to hear how excited he was to play it for me.
He is such a wonderful little boy and I can't believe he is already in First Grade as it seems like only yesterday he was a baby.
I miss him very much.

  1. I am catching up on your blog (and mine...lol)!

    Glad to hear all the latest and especially this one. I miss Ryan and I am glad you blogged about him. I thought it was cute as well that he thought you would be there. Too funny that they still do not get the concept on how big the world is......and yet, at the same time, sometimes, it seems so small, huh?

    Either way, stock up on 9 volts! E hugs. Hope you are getting rest.
