rdsknbill Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 My wife and I just put our youngest of three kids on the bus this morning. It was with mixed emotions. Pride that our "Baby" was growing up, and a bit of sadness, that well....., um.... our "baby" was growing up. :cry: (Homeschoolers keep your comments to yourself Thanks) It was pretty cool. Her big Sis was with her the whole time, she's in fourth grade. So I think that she was comfortable enough. Not to mention that she is a wonderfully intelligent child. Takes after her mother, Thank God :laugh: Just thought I'd share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codeorama Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 I'm in the calm before the storm now.... School starts Tuesday here in SE Va. For the next 2 weeks, my phone will not stop ringing, all I will hear about is fights on buses, buses overcrowded, kids having to walk to far to bus stops, rude bus drivers etc.... I hate school opening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thito_da_skins_fan Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 I'm sure it's tough, but I have no kids, so I really wouldn't know. The only picture I can think of is Forrest Gump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSF Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Bill, My kids started school a couple of weeks ago(school starts early in GA). My son just turned 4 and is in preK. He is the smallest kid on the bus. It was a little spooky watching him get on the bus the first time being so small, but so far he loves it. My wife was a little sad, but the peace and quiet helped her to get over it pretty quick.:laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skip to my lou Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Originally posted by DUSTINMFOX My only child starts Kindergarten on Tues...It is going to be a very mixed emotion day...I know how you feel If anything like my first one going to kindergarten it will be emotional. I hated like heck for my daughter, looking to me for support, seeing me well up. As soon as I dropped her off I called my wife, she asked, "How did she do", I said "fine", she said" You sound like a wreck". I said "Yeah, pretty much" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdsknbill Posted September 2, 2004 Author Share Posted September 2, 2004 I hear ya GSF. My wife doesn't quite know what to do. This is the first time in 13 years she hasn't had a kid around the house in the morning during the school year. She seems to be adjusting pretty quickly though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
