come on tell me, did you cry?

[PROUD KAZ]

Did your little one start school this last few weeks? Did you cry as you walked out the gates! Actually I did'nt as this was my third time of parental torture. I did'nt cry, but huh did my heart feel like it was being wrenched from behind my ribs. What relief when it was time for pick up. Come on spill the beans, how did us Brighton and Hove parents control ourselves on the first day at school September 2009?

My second daughter started school this month and I didn't cry but surprised myself when I got a bit overwhelmed. It was when she first put her school uniform on the first morning of school, she just looked so little compared to her big sister wearing the same thing! A bit of nostalgia came back remembering her first day of school but it was exciting I couldn't wait to have some peace and quiet! Anyway third week of school now and thought I had it all under control when on Monday after talking about this friend she had made at school all weekend, she went skipping into school holding hands with this other little girl, that seriously brought a tear to my eye!
