How many of you have sent your child off to school for the first time (new school, college, etc.)?
Can you see my hand stretched way up high?
And I have been a wreck! Not because my first born isn't ready, is scared, or doesn't want to go but just the opposite...she can't wait to go! I am morning the loss of my babe!
I have been told if she is excited, I did my job right but I can't help feeling a loss for her baby/toddler years. They are gone...
I know I need to buck up and look to the future because it holds some pretty awesome times and experiences, too. I also know, I did the best I could raising her thus far, and it seems good enough.
sigh...wipe...sigh....go get 'em!
What I hope She Learns In Kindergarten?
1. To Treat others as she would want to be treated;
2. Stick up for the kid(s) who is being picked on or ask for help and stand up for herself if she is being picked on;
3. Not to pick her nose or wedgie in public!
4. Learning to read would be good too!
What I Learned:
1. She can do more than I give her credit for;
2. She has a gift of bringing joy and love to others just for being her; and
3. I have done a pretty good job so far! (Don't pick your nose or bottom in public, Em!!)
