Done are the days of shuttling kids back and forth, baking multiple brownies for multiple school events, arranging playdates, extra classes...and that should be something to smile about, yes?
You would think so...but the truth is, I always face the end of every school year with a highly emotional note.
My kids have always gone to very transient schools where every year they have to face losing their best friends or their teachers or both.
And nothing breaks me more than to see these little hearts broken...
I sometimes wonder how these experiences are going to affect them long term...will they fear relationship? Will they grow calloused to goodbyes?
As we are moving school this year, we found ourselves in the goodbye-end and I find myself still suck at saying goodbyes.
I busied myself with all sorts of things. Anything really that can save me from having to say goodbye.
But at the end of the day, I guess life goes on and the days of sleeping in and not baking brownies is something to look forward to after all.
