Listen, I’m not saying I hate school, but I’m not saying I don’t hate it either. It’s fine. Everything is fine. Talking about the gut wrenching reality all Moms face that very first day of school. From what I understand, no, it doesn’t get easier. Cue my long and dramatic feelings towards the entire situation! So many people tell you to value “those days” and “they won’t be that young forever”! To which we all collectively give one large eye roll. Then it finally happens, where you do just that, and you wish for “those days” to be back. At least I did. The days are long but the years are short. Fucking hell, it was all true. Then there I was- blubbering in my car alone. SOBBING. Uncontrollably. If that is you, or if that will ever be you, just know it will happen. Know that a lot of the other Moms are feeling it too, but know you’ll also be so damn proud with every milestone. Hang in there, Mamas! It is so fucking hard to watch them grow, but a joy as well.
