Well, here it is. My first blog post. It seems like only yesterday I said I would never have a blog. I mean, seriously who would want to read what what I have to say? Yet here I am.
Today is my birthday. My son, Bryce, will be 6 in just a few more days and I'll be sending him off to Kindergarten. That weighs heavy on my mind right now. After choosing to wait and not enroll him full time last year, I thought I'd feel 100% confident sending him now. Yet I find myself nervous, uncertain of how he will adjust. Feeling helpless at the thought of sending him to a large school for 7 hrs a day, during which time I'll have no clue what is going on. As much as I love being a SAHM, I sometimes envy moms who have started their kids in daycare as babies. I mean, surely, they don't go through this when their kids start school. They are used to entrusting their children to others. They know how to let go. This is going to be a huge learning experience for both of us.
Thankfully, I don't have to let go of Jenna for a bit longer. She'll be with me pretty much constantly. On the mornings I work at PDO, she will continue to come with me, though I did opt to have her in a different class since she loves to challenge my authority. She's just going to be across the hall, so there won't be much separation.
