Our Greatest Love
If you see a lot of grown men and women walking down the street sobbing to themselves in these next couple weeks - don't worry - its just the first day of kindergarten for many of us.
Our "baby's" are all grown up.
I intellectually understood how weepy my parents were at high school and college graduation. And my wedding. Now I totally understand the feeling. But I still can't describe it. There is no reason for it. I'm as DAMN HAPPY AS ANYONE CAN BE:
HE IS FINALLY OUT OF "PRE"SCHOOL, AND IN "FREE" SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!
Yippeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (mamma needs a new couch)
But, I can't explain what is making me sad. I have settled on that "Circle of Life" feeling. The passing of time. Of seasons. We aren't getting any younger. And we better remember to have the BEST DAMN TIME WE CAN while we are here on this earth together.
Bye Bye Boo Boo - Have a wonderful year!!! I love you!!! (that's him in the first seat....)
The song I used to play for him in the car on the way home from daycare every day...you can never describe the love you have for your kids, but this song comes the closest....

More than the greatest love the world has known
This is the love that I give to you alone
More than the simple words I try to say
I only live to love you more each day.More than you'll ever know
My arms long to hold you so
My life will be in your keeping
Waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping.Longer than always is a long, long time
But far beyond forever, you'll be mine
I know I never lived before
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more.More than the greatest love the world has known
This is the love that I give to you alone
More than the simple words I try to say
I only live to love you more each day.More than you'll ever know
My arms got to hold you so
My life will be in your keeping
Waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping.Longer than always is a long, long, long time
But far beyond forever, you'll be mine
I know I never lived before
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more.
Now, on to more important things like how to Win the "War on Frumpiness" at the bus stop!!
Cheers! Heidi
