As
mom’s our guard is forever up – sacrifices made, protecting, watching,
supporting. But confessions be made, our hearts still break, and me - I
am a crier. And it’s serious, I cry at every Hallmark and Purina
commercial. And I cried today, no advertising involved. Last day of
Kindergarten for Emma. Bittersweet. I cried the entire drive over, and
the entire drive back. It’s official, my baby days
are over.
Enjoy every moment friends of little ones. Though the
tantrums and teething and sleepless nights may distract, soak up every
single baby day, because it’s so true – it goes fast. Sniff.
I
am forever grateful for this year where my Emma continued to grow into
the glorious little girl that she is, tying shoes, mastering reading,
scoring at soccer and learning patience, control and persistence (those
last three works in progress, for sure).
I celebrate alongside all of
my parent friends these end of school-year milestones, the strength it
takes to close a chapter and knowing that when one ends, another
begins...
