Dylan's Last Day of His First Year of School........

Today is my "baby's" last day of his first year of school. For some strange reason the end is harder than the beginning for me, and I have been thinking of why this could be. The only thing I can think is I am not the sole caretaker for him now, I am not the only one shaping who is is and who is going to become. This is very difficult for me and I know it is for the best but still it makes me sad. On Tuesday I told him that I was sad that today was his last day of school and he replies, "Not me!" A big smile came over his face. I am not entirely sure he understands what summer break is because as we were leaving school he said I want to bring my shovel for sharing. So I said you will have to bring it next year. When we got home I said I am so happy school is out now I have you all to myself, to which he replied, "I want you to share me I like my teachers!" So to Mrs Alisa and Mrs Tanya and all the teachers to follow I say, "Thank you for doing this job you do....you are helping the next generation to becoming what they are destined to be!" Here is the beautiful book Mrs Tanya made for each of the students in their class. And thanks again....its been fabulous!
