How did this happen?

I sent my baby to kindergarten today. My oldest can’t be 5 already!!
I’m smiley and teary and in disbelief all at the same time. How do they grow up so fast?

    If you figure that out, let me know! I can hardly believe I’ve got two in school already and my ‘baby’ is getting bigger and talking back more and more every day…

    Ditto Deb. It’s so sad/happy at the same time!

    Congratulations and commiserations! Do something nice for yourself today. And, cry a little. We won’t tell anyone!

    Time marches on, whether we mommies want it to or not!

    My oldest is 9 and in 4th and my youngest is 6 and in 1st. This year he is at school all day. It surprised me at how difficult it was for me to let him go. I love the milestones and watching them grow up, but at the same time I hate it!

    I’m pretty sure feeding them has something to do with it.

    I felt this same way last year. Now my kindergartener is in first grade. Ack?!?
