I swear it takes nothing more than a school uniform to age a child 10+ years. Hand over ALL the tissues please. The tiny polo shirt, the little tennis shoes, the backpacks and lunchboxes, I can't. There's no denying all traces of babyhood are gone and it makes me want to weep something fierce. Here's a little snapshot of Jacob as he heads off to Pre-k:
