This makes me remember years of the past.

I can still remember the anxiety I had with each child during those first weeks of school.

Now on to fall….raking leaves, putting away summer stuff, & getting the garden flowers ready to sleep for the winter. Lots to do!

We were always in good care and often came home to home baked cookies...

It seems like so many years ago that I went through this. All is well as I watched my five great grand kids get ready yesterday. Such a wonderful time.

Good stuff Wendy. All the realities of summer ending. Definitely an emotional time of year. Be gentle with yourself. Feel all the feels! Hugs.

Relatable on every level, from the sheer shock that summer has ended, to the relief that school routine has started and we don’t need to pay a mortgage payment for summer programs anymore, to your prayer for your kids/teachers/other families! ❤️ Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift of writing on this topic! Miss you ❤️
