She was so very very brave! Oh that little face, she looked so lost and unsure, but put on a wobbly smile and hugged and kissed me goodbye. I held my pose until I got into the car and then dissolved into tears!
Oh how I pray her heart is content. I hope the teachers and children are nice to her. I hope she feels peaceful and happy. I hope she makes special friends. I hope she loves school!
Can't wait to go fetch her and hear all about it.

Aaaw Jess! That pic of her sitting - her face.... Hope the day went well.
ReplyDeleteMatthew does Grade R next year. Bittersweet but part of growing up, I suppose.
Thanks Kim! Thankfully it did go well. But yes, that last piccie's face expression haunted me the whole day yesterday!
DeleteBittersweet, but special times too, indeed!

Gosh Jess, I hope all went well. I do think it is harder on the parents than on the kids. Will post about our Grade 1 experience soon
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Helen, it did go very well, I'm so thankful and relieved!!
DeleteYes, looking forward to hearing all about Liam in grade one!
