This year my youngest started high school and I was...well..ambivalent! I was surprised! My favorite kindergarten story is the day my oldest started. I tried to prepare her that SOME kids might cry..and that was ok. Maybe they didnt' go to preschool or they were scared. (she was like your DD...skipped off happy as a lark). When she got home, she announced "MOM, you dont' know WHAT you are talking about! No body CRIED!" (gee mom, what WERE you thinking about! LOL..) she is 28 now, all 'growed up' and is active duty AF. I still miss that little girl.

All the mom's who were crying at the bus stop didn't like me too much that day, lol! It is hard to let the first one go but it does get easier and they change and learn so much. Now, I wish it was so easy to let me boy go. He's been gone 8-1/2 months on his mission and it seems like a lifetime.
