Okay, so he hasn't "technically" flown the coop-- I suppose I have about 15 more years until that happens-- BUT this is the first step and I don't like it one bit!
Pre-school is the gateway drug to Kindergarten.
Soon after that he'll be mainlining hardcore elementary school- ALL DAY, EVERYDAY!!!
Again, I don't like this one bit!
First of all, he's about the sweetest, easiest kid to have around, so why would I want to send him off somewhere?
Second, do I really want to have FOUR schools to contend with?
Third, he's only 3 and that just seems way too young. He was just an embryo 36 months ago!
Fourth, one more lunch to pack.
And fifth--- I'll miss him
...a lot.
SO, I put on my big girl panties and sent him off with a lump in my throat the size of his Lightening "LeQueen" (as he says it) lunchbox.
And you know what happened?
He loved it.
Of course he did! he always has a big smile and loves to be around people so what could be better!
