WAR EAGOR

This is how Will used to say War Eagle....sadly as the days pass by he is starting to lose some of his precious baby talk and sound like a big kid. This morning he could. not. wait to wear his Auburn jersey to school. We shelled out the big bucks this year to get him a "real" one. He LOVES it and would prefer to never take it off. So decked out in his new jersey and Auburn socks, I snapped a few pictures before school.Our second year in Auburn we rented a house in a small neighborhood. This was back when kids weren't even on our radar. Lots of kids lived in the neighborhood and every morning while I ate my breakfast, I watched little kids with their parents walk to the curb and wait for the bus. One Friday morning just before football season started, I spotted one particular kid that made me smile. I called John and told him that I had just seen our future child....A kindergarten little boy anxiously awaiting the bus looking SO proud to be wearing his Auburn jersey, Auburn socks, and Auburn backpack. The kid was decked out head to toe. I knew that someday we would have a little boy that would look just like this. And today that became a reality...John's mini me. Once Will was dressed this morning, I thought of that little boy on the curb waiting for the bus.
We are planning to take Will to an Auburn game at the end of September. When asked what we do at football games he quickly replies, "Eat M&Ms and say WAR EAGLE, HEY!!!!" I don't know about the War Eagle part but I've got the eating M&Ms thing down :)
