I have just one dear girl (year 5) and just this week we started at a new school - it's all racing along so quickly and when times are difficult for the, it's so heartbreaking. But how lovely that he wanted that reassurance you would be there to pick him up! Gosh, the last first day.

As I drove him to school for his first day yesterday I felt almost tearful. I told him I was a little sad that it was his first day of high school. He sighed and said "yah, me too." His reason was he had to get out of bed though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119596690600748752.post-39205892413683672002008-08-19T12:32:00.000-05:002008-08-19T12:32:00.000-05:00Awwww.

Perhaps the most difficult day of my life was my baby's first day of junior college, when he drove off to class and a new apartment that would be his weekdays home. Do you think it's even a little more poignant with boys since they aren't supposed to be vulnerable?Janishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04453865302574412911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119596690600748752.post-43897779044442282432008-08-18T22:44:00.000-05:002008-08-18T22:44:00.000-05:00Yes, I'm with you on that.
