I didn’t realize how emotional this day was going to feel until we were on our way there. 🥹💔
Today is our last park playdate of the summer, and it feels like the end of an era.
My son’s best friends are all starting kindergarten this year, while he gets to stay home with me for one more year. And honestly, I have such mixed feelings about it.
I’m so excited for them and all the fun they’re going to have, but it breaks my mama heart a little knowing they won’t be together every day anymore. They’ve grown up playing together, making memories together, and watching them all head into this next chapter is just emotional.
Next fall will be our turn. His last year at home with me is officially here, and I already know I’m going to blink and it’ll be time for kindergarten.
So today, I’m soaking up every minute of this playdate and trying not to think about how quickly these little years are going by.
Do your little ones start school this year, or do you have another year (or so) at home with them?❤️
