Starting school and tissues

I've taken the Bubs to his first day of 1st grade. *sigh*

I had visions of a complicated morning last night while I was thinking of everything that our morning routine would include. My mental projections were for naught. We got out of the house without a hitch and in a good mood.

What I wasn't counting on was my heart stuttering as I watched the Bubs kiss his little brother and tell him over and over, "I love you so much. I'm gonna miss you but I'll see you later."

Those were the same words I told him on his first day of Kindergarten.

Where did I put that box of tissues?!

I am right there with you. I bawled after dropping the twins off their first day of kindergarten - and first grade wasn't much better. Now this year in second grade, I was counting down until they went back :)
