Cry with me as we send off my baby to her first day of school and summer school

The day has finally come.  Who would of thought the years would go by this fast?!  All four of the children in school!!!  I know it is just summer fun school.. but it is Sophia's first time away for any kind of school and her first time on a school bus with out me.

Yessss.. I was chocking back tears as I waved them on to the bus!!  Sophia was not scared at all and was so excited.  She knew that her big sisters and brother were going to be around if she needed them and oh mom.. she has the dog and cat to keep her company lol.

And yessssss.. the house is eirly quiet.  The dog is mooping around and has a sad face.  We will get used to it and by the time we do, school will be over.

It's a big day for us.. and I am kind of tripping out.  All my babies are gone!  And they left me happily and willing, with out a second thought or a quick reassuring hug.  But aww.. I look forward to them coming home and hearing all about the games and friends they will meet.

  1. Oh that is way too sad!  It will be for about a day or two and then you will be looking forward to putting all four on the bus every day!

  4. Oh honey, I know how you must feel!! My 4 year old is going to school for the first time in September and I don't know HOW I am going to handle it...I can't even think about it now without the tears starting. Hope Sophia had a great first day of school!! :-)
