First Day of Second Grade

Here is my question - when will I stop crying when I drop my children off on the first day of school?  Today was my oldest son's first day of second grade.  I got him to his classroom, he gave his teacher a nice happy we made her, and I left.  And, I cried!  He seems like such a big boy at home, but in that big classroom he seems like my little baby.

This morning while he was eating breakfast, I started thinking about when I first found out I was pregnant with him, the first time I saw him, the first time I held him, his first day of preschool, his first day of kindergarten and so on.  It is amazing how seven years can bring so many firsts!  

He survived his first day with flying colors.  And, I am proud to say I did too!
