There are some very big changes in store for my group of kick-ass momma friends. Our babies are growing up...and none of us like it much. I'm falling apart over preschool when he will really be kindergarten age. My daughter is also one of the fearless kind. So unlike my son...in so many ways.
The challenges of motherhood just continue to go on and on. I don't want to raise mean kids. My kids are both definetly spirited and a little nutso...but they get that honest. They are also very sweet and loving and every day begins with "where are we going today,,who are we going to see". They love their friends as much as I love their mommas.
My kids will probably be recommended for meds when a teacher gets ahold of them...hope not...don't want to have to stress over that..
I saw this preschool class in full motion the other day and I have no doubt that my brave boy will have a blast!! There were other kids who were throwing letters and playing make believe and having a ball. He would have loved it. Maybe not the first day...but I know he will make it work.
I can't believe the time has come to send them or consider sending them out into the big bad world...at least I have some back up for myself when I deflate from all the backing-up of the little kid. Being a momma is hard! Especially when you are doing all you know how to and then some and the kid still roars at his friends....
Some kids think they are fairies and princesses....my kids think they are gorillas....chalk it up to too many trips to the zoo..
But my gorillas would not hesitate to go out on the limb , even if they were scared , to rescue their princess fairy.
And they learned that from their momma.
