Time to let them go
This morning was the big day. Daddy, me and Grandma brought Sophia to her first day of school at 8 A.M. Last night i was still feeling excited and happy about Sophia going to school. Thinking that she’s all grown up now and that she would be alright. Today was a completely different feeling. I was so nerve and i felt my heart aching with pain. Like i wanted to bring her home the moment i brought her to her classroom.
There were other kids there. Very close in age. Some i guess are used to going to school already. So they just did their usual thing in class, but of course there were others that were crying their eye balls out. Seriously i felt like crying with them. They miss their mommy and daddy while i’m worry about my little girl. I understand is part of growing up. If she doesn’t do it now, she’ll have to go through the same thing when she goes to Pre-K. Don’t think is going to make any different.
After i dropped her off. All i could think about the whole day was Sophia. Consistently on my mind. Thinking what she is doing at this moment. If she’s getting along with other kids. Or is she crying for us….just all different things going through my head. I guess me and daddy had the same worry. So we ended up picking her up early. Four instead of six. We were just glad to see our little girl sitting quietly with other kids reading books. The teacher said she did very well. She joined with the other kids with all the activities. She took her nap without her usual bottle. Ate her food. But apparently not enough because the cookies i bought along with me. She ate them all before we even got home. She even requested she wanted rice for dinner. My mom made dinner right away for her.
It was truly a tough first day for me. My little girl all grown up now. Just pray that tomorrow will go somewhat as smoothly as today. O! Daddy just said to me that she isn’t going to school tomorrow. She need a break. Ah!! I think daddy is a little more crazy than me.
