It’s that time again this year. We are back to chauffeuring children to school activities, volunteering at school functions, and making sure homework packets are completed.

We are also back to reflecting where the summer went.

Though sending my kids off to their first days of school induces a fit of crying, I am also happy that they are growing kids. Experiencing a new grade, a new school, a new stage.

And I know I will eventually grow out of the crying fits. Until next year.
