Okay...I'm not going to cry. I just sent my 7-year-old off on the bus for his first day of 1st grade. He'll be gone all day! I know I should enjoy this time, and I probably will...eventually. I just know how nervous he was (thank god he didn't cry or I would have gotten on the bus with him!!!) Okay, I can handle this, right? He'll be fine, right? At least I have two other ones at home to keep my mind off of him all day. All right, only 5 hours to go! How pathetic am I?? Well, at least I can admit it. Thanks for letting me babble.

I so understand what you are feeling. Next week I will be sending my oldest off to 1st grade and my middle child to Kindergarten. I'm amazed at how fast they are growing. When my youngest goes to school thats when I will be crying my eyes out,lol.

I sent my son off to 1st grade 2weeks ago. I know EXACTLY what you're feeling. My son had a really hard time with kindergarden. So I knew 1st grade was going to be difficult. Had a hard time deciding to promote that sort of thing, and of all things it wouldn't be the same school, with teachers that knew his troubles. I am really nervous about him this year.

Thanks for listening!!!

I know how you are feeling.
I just sent my 5 year old to Kindergarten not too long ago.
It sure was hard to let go of my baby for the first time.
Good luck and enjoy your time with your other two.
