for some the first week of school is behind them for others it's just beginning. school has been the talk around my office and every where i go. Since being out of school i never paid attention and now i am finding my self watching a little girl at the cross walk on her way to school and i envision Isla. Time fly's and there is no stopping it. I remember being in grammar school and wishing that time moved faster! WHAT ON EARTH WAS I THINKING? Now i only wish i could slow the hands of time so i can enjoy the little things. Isla is one going on 13 i cant help but think of what it will be like for her when she is in school i don't know how i am going to take this step. You hear and see in movies and TV where the parent is heart broken because their child let go of their hand so effortlessly on their first day of school. THAT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN WILL BE
ME Will i be prepared? Will i know what to do? i meant will i know what school to send her to? i mean when do you start applying for preschool? I am so scared for her to join the rest because with that comes more.Comes growing up, Independence and letting go. will i be ready? are you ever really ready? what can i do but enjoy the time i do have her little, the time she is all mine and the time i don't have to share! Times are different and for being new school and knowing "whats up" i don't want her to grow up i am scared for her and for what will be once she enters this milestone. i guess i will have to sit back and let nature run its course as i see her walk into her first day of kindergarten and take her seat in front of a sign that will read
I-S-L-A, Fingers crossed that when we are there i take it with grace and understanding. please know i will be the FIRST parent in line waiting to pick Isla up from her first day of school,because well i am sure i will probably not leave the parking lot :)
and now...
