Hey ladies!
My two start back to school tomorrow. Where did the summer go?? They will both be in middle school! I don't have any babies anymore!!
When my oldest started kindergarten, a friend of mine share a poem with me...it's one of my favorites! I thought I would share it with you!!
A Touch Of Love
-author unknown
You were six months old and full of fun
With a blink of my eye, you were suddenly one.
There were so many things we were going to do,
But I turned my head and you were two.
At two you were very dependant on me,
But independance took over when you turned three.
Your third birthday, another year I tried to ignore,
But when I lit the candles, there weren't three, but four.
Four was the year that you really strived,
Why, look at you now, you're already five.
Now you are ready for books and for rules.
This is the year that you go to school.
The big day came, you were anxious to go.
We walked to the bus, going oh, so slow.
As you climbed aboard and waved goodbye,
I felt a lump in my thoart and tears stung my eyes.
Time goes so fast, it's hard to believe
that just yesterday you were home here with me.
And tommorrow when the bus brings you home
and you jump to the ground,
You'll be wearing your cap and graduation gown.
So I'm holding to these moments as hard as I can,
Because the next time I look, I'll be seeing a man.

Told ya it was a good one...When I was in charged of the Boo Hoo Breakfast at our school for kindergarten moms...we used this poem.....went through lots of tissue!!
Seriously...I hope all of your kids have great returns to school!!! And for you kindergarten moms, before you know it you'll have middle schoolers just like me!!!
