Jay is done with Elementary...but apparently not the ER

I am still in shock!!! This picture is of Jay on his first day of school. He is waiting for the bus. He was so excited to finally be going to school. He loved Kindergarten and he loved riding the bus everyday. The bus actually brought him all the way to our driveway to drop him off. It was fun to hear the bus and run out to meet him. Somedays it seems like that was forever ago, today it seems like yesterday!!!This is Jay on his last day of Elementary. He is equally excited to start Middle School as he was to start Kindergarten. As much as I don't like to admit it...he really is ready to move on. He's been that way since about December. He got so bored with 5th grade. I'm excited to see him continue to grow into a fine young man. He will be getting the Priesthood this year. I'm amazed at what a sharp kid he is and the responsibility he sees within himself to take. I am truly blessed with a great kid!!! YES, another trip to the ER...we're now on a first named basis with the nurses!!! I ran over Jay's toe with a shopping cart and it turned in to this awful injury! (I feel horrible...he shouldn't put his toes in my way though) The doctor gave us an antibiotic and sent us to a specialist. Jay went swimming before we saw the specialist and the antibiotic had kicked in and it looked a million times better. The doctor told us to keep soaking it and bandage it if wearing close toed shoes.
These pictures are for Uncle Ben...I am a crazy Mom who always has her camera. Jay is just acting like he's in a lot of pain. Actually, he was in a lot of pain, but nothing is happening here...he's just playing to the camera!!!
Sadly my camera batteries were almost dead and I didn't get a great picture of the toe!!! It's been a week and we haven't gone to the ER. Let's hope we're done for awhile!!!

so sad!! Who would have thought a shopping cart could do that. Hope you stay away from the Er too. He is getting so big! Crazy that he is going to middle school already.
