I am sitting here in an empty house. This morning, I entrusted the light of my life to the public school system. He is going in for his first full day of kindergarten. I am full of mixed feelings abou this whole adventure, but I expect he will love it and have a great time. This does, however, mark a new era, where all sorts of new influences will be affecting him & contributing to his growth. I hope they are generally positive ones!
