I am about to suffer the same moment next year when my little girl goes to 3 year old kindy. It's only 5 hours a week spread over 2 days but I am shaking with the fear of having to let her go. Very sad. Good luck and have faith that you have done your best with your little man with the small amount of time you had together. xxTarynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16780149973550636286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331972089469544815.post-25113629093746642192010-01-04T12:20:44.699+10:002010-01-04T12:20:44.699+10:00Oh honey - tears from me too - I do exactly the sa...Oh honey - tears from me too - I do exactly the same thing - or I used to, before my eldest went to five different schools. By the fifth I reached a nice compromise with myself where If she felt left out in any way, i could change that later. But coming up to New city and new schools from school with no uniform and no desks teaching in Reggio Emilia to normal primary school I am scared and butterflyey for both my little ones - what if i don't know how to do "normal" school stuff? what if lunchboxes matter more, what if shoes are more important?<br />I'll be right there with you with the butterflies.<br />And as emily said yes, special time with the 2 year old - you will love it - I figured it made up for the time I had with eldest before bub 2 was born.<br />Enjoy getting the first little uniform and lunchbox and schoolbag - soon it will be a hassle...hugs many.<br />Great post and love the new blog background..aprilhttp://lifeslightlyused.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331972089469544815.post-27317049925585492812010-01-04T09:44:31.819+10:002010-01-04T09:44:31.819+10:00Oh, you've taken me back to my first son's...Oh, you've taken me back to my first son's first day. The butterflies and anxiety. I remember getting everything ready the night before and worrying about his school shirt being PERFECT. His lunch box was chockablock with every snack possible. And when his name was called (the first child in Kindy), the tears, unexpectedly I might add, filled my eyes. I was so very, very proud. Nerves gone. Relief and pride replaced them. <br /><br />What a special time!<br /><br />Lovely post, Thea. xJodie Anstedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12300961546795965857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331972089469544815.post-31040689525793994892010-01-04T07:42:52.736+10:002010-01-04T07:42:52.736+10:00Oh Thea!
