Now I know...

Now I know what it's like for parents to send their kids away for school for the first time.

It took forever to get the little ones in the car, and for the entire ride. The fought once we got there, not wanting to get out of the car...


I hate taking the cats to the vet... And now I have no cats in the house untill Satudray Morning...

Yep. It's lonely without my little furries.

Hang in there.

Tuesday I sent my son to his last year of high school. I think it was harder than the first day of kindergarden. My God, my son is a senior. My daughter is a junior. In two years my kids may be gone. I know my son is trying like hell to get into Chapel Hill. He'll make it easy. Next year he'll be gone. Then my daughter... fuck.

I've done a lot of reflecting this past week. I hope he has a fun year, senior year can be a hell of a lot of fun. I know I enjoyed it. I wish I could do it again, knowing what I know now.

I'll never forget that first day a long time ago, how excited he was. How cute he was. Seems like it was just a few months ago.

My daughter, my only child, graduated from high school last June. While I agree that sending my daughter off to kindergarten was a gut wrenching experience, it was nothing compared to when she started High School. I remember leaving the HS orientation and sitting in my car, crying like a baby. My little girl was on her way to being a woman. Even now, I get choked up thinking about it.

I wonder how things like that make my mother feel. I am the only child in the family, and I will be starting my second year of college in September. Heck, I'm almost twenty. Thinking about things like that, makes me think of all she has had to go through for me, and I can't cay anything but I'm gratefull.

My momma took it rather hard when I graduated from high school... hell, she was in constant tears throughout my high school years. I'm the youngest of five. She'd been *momma* since 1966. Suddenly, after 1999, she didn't have any kids at home.

Now she has grandkids ... lol, she's happy.

I my momma
