Some can't wait to get the kids out of their hair, some want he quiet, some get sad watching their little ones go off to school for the first time and home schools have the same feelings.
For myself when my daughter first got on the bus for kindergarten I was so excited for her and looking forward to having the day alone with my son. This is a big year for her. Our children attend a K-12 school and this year she is going into grade 6. Which is in the high school end. I am still excited for her. With that excitement comes fear. There will be make-up, cliques, homework, wanting to wear certain clothes and boys. I feel that we have raised her confident and smart, yet still I worry about the mean kids. She on the other hand is a little worried about being the little kid again but looking forward to all the sports she can do.
There are parts of me that can't wait to get them on the bus and out of my hair and other parts of me that are wanting just a little more time with them.
How are you feeling about back to school?
